Caribbean Kitchen

"I'm a Delta loyalist, but the only direct flight to Puerto Vallarta was on JetBlue so I had to eat it. I felt like a fish out of water walking around in this unfamiliar terminal at 7am, petrified of the unknown. It's moments like these when you find out if you're a man or a mouse. All my normal, subpar goto airport meals in Terminal 4 are out of the question. After taking a full lap around Terminal 5 scoping out every last option, turning every last rock, we reluctantly decided on Caribbean Kitchen. My expectations for airport food are astronomically low, so when I pulled the trigger on this egg white omelette I was expecting a pre made concoction that was heated up for 60 seconds in the microwave. I was completely shocked when I saw the cook pour egg whites into a pan along with spinach, onions, and peppers to make the omelette right there in front of me. It came piping hot with a side of breakfast potatoes that were honestly pretty decent. The omelette was so good that I felt like I was in the Amsterdam or Barcelona airport, as those are the only places I have had a genuinely good meal in an airport. My Gold Standards. My Four Seasons of airports. All this to say, it's good to get out of your comfort zone. Change can be rough at times, but it's key to growth. Often times everything we've ever wanted lies on the other side of fear. Give the Terminal 5s of the world a chance, you may be pleasantly surprised....... IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov__"

"Absolute trash. Even as airport food goes, this is bad. I ordered the Avocado egg sandwich which claimed to have White cheddar. It came with a slice of American cheese on a pre-frozen, DRY egg round. The bread was stale and hard, and the potatoes tasted if freezer burn. I’m repulsed and encourage NO ONE to eat here, ever, for any reason. I should have just paid for my “food” and thrown it directly into the toilet to save my tastebuds from torture. Also, the vegetarian option is fried in the same oil as the meat."

"Super yummy. Got the chicken with black beans, avocado, and Moro(Similar to spanish rice?). Very filling and flavorful. Chicken was slightly dry but good. Airport checkout system sucks, but that's not on them lol"

"Has potential but rice was teeth breaking inedible and black beans are rationed. I got 15. Large inch by inch hard crunchy rice. Check out lines are long. I suspect you can do better elsewhere."
