Ever been to CLE? They work ALL the food venues there (except Max and Ermas, Banjo's and Home Turf...I think). If all you do when flying through CLE is buy a bagel or a Starbucks then YES, those angry folks behind the counter DO represent CLE and they WILL leave a bad taste in your mouth. And its not just the burned coffee.

Also, If you ever make it down to Ponca City, OK (PNC), there is a great cubano place there, although I doubt anyone will ever be there unless you work for Lakes!
Enrique's...Yep, too bad we lost that city...People were ordering food over company frequency so they could run over and get it during the 10 minute turn!

You can't just kick everyone out of society that you don't like.

All pretty much Laker spots but: Airport restaraunt breakfast in PUB, Enrique's in Ponca, and above all, the green chile cheesbuger in SAF. Not to mention the station agent's home cooking in LBL. We'd call in range and be answered with "You boys want some food!?"

As far as DEN goes, IMHO Que Bueno has been on a downhill slide for the last few years although their super secret 'fuego' sauce is still great. I remember Chef Jimmy's breakfast paninis fitting the Lakes Air bill as well: quick, greasy and cheap.

Still home-cooking going on in LBL! We're in a different spot in SAF now, with a great award-winning BBQ across the street. Que Bueno is everyone's favorite right now for a $4 breakfast burrito.

Isn't that how it is in all the big East Coast airports? PHL, LGA, BOS, CLT, PIT. . .it seems like any of those airports have people working behind the counters who act like it is a huge inconvenience to be at their job.

That guy is awesome. I laughed at him on the first bite desperately trying to keep the skin on my tongue from hanging outside of my mouth.

I always looked forward to the gyros in ORD. There is a pretty good place to get burritos in PVD next to the United gates and the breakfast burritos in DEN are also good. There used to be a little kiosk in IAD between the C and D gates that had some pretty tasty panninis but they shut it down.
