USA Today Rates Best Food In World Airports, None in USA


Of course, the research was done thoroughly, and the listed eateries serve fine food. However, we beg to differ because not one on the list is a U.S. airport. Of course, the hurry-up atmosphere in and around most American terminals doesn’t always make for fine dining, but surely at least one should have made the top 15 list.

Here’s the USA Today world airport list in rank order: Tokyo Narita, Taiwan Taiyuan, China Hong Kong, Singapore Changi, Amsterdam Schipol, London Gatwick, Sydney Kingsford-Smith, Madrid Suarez, Germany Munich, London Heathrow, Germany Frankfurt, Toronto Pierson, Paris De Gaulle, Barcelona El Prat, Rome Da Vinci.

Ok, they’re fine places to dine, but what about San Francisco International, Baltimore-Washington International, Chicago O’Hare, Los Angeles International, Long Beach CA  and Boston Logan? Check out the many xlnt restaurants at those American airports.
Time Travel: If You Could, What Would You Choose? PDF Print E-mail

In recent news reports, Aussie scientists hinted that some day time travel will actually be possible. In response, we asked several of our very seasoned readers to choose their first return trip to the 1950s:

JJL, Los Angeles CA: I’d go back to Disneyland on opening day, July 17, 1955. I’d be a kid again, and enjoy It’s A Small World, Pirates Of The Caribbean and other rides. I’d also get to meet Walt Disney and the actor who narrated the event on black and white TV, Ronald Reagan.

PTS, Chicago IL: I’d opt to return to my first New York City visit in October 1951. I had a first row ticket at the Palace Theater while Judy Garland performed. For her finale, she sat down just two feet from me on the edge of the stage. Judy sang Over The Rainbow, and I’ve always believed it was just to me.

FMS, Philadelphia PA: Send me back to the New Frontier Hotel in Las Vegas in May 1956. I’d have the chance to enjoy the young Elvis Presley’s first appearance in Sin City. I’m sure he’d be surprised when I’d tell him how famous he’d be more than two generations later.
