USA. “Original, authentic and innovative” Mexican cuisine is on offer at SSP America’s latest restaurant in New York John F. Kennedy International Airport Terminal 4.
Mi Casa Cantina features proteins, salsas, sauces and salads made from scratch; traditional breakfast options; a variety of tortas, burritos and ensaladas; do-it-yourself guacamole; and Mexican small-plate dishes.
Mixologist and founder of the all-female speed bartending competition ‘Speed Rack’ Lynnette Marrero has handcrafted the cocktail menu. An array of tequila and mescal-based creations are available, as well as a rotating offer of agua frescas. There are more than 12 selections of Mexican, Latin and southern Californian beers, and over 25 different tequilas and mezcals.
Mi Casa Cantina offers both a fast-casual dining service option and a full-service cantina experience. The vibrantly-coloured restaurant is decorated with art and artefacts celebrating Mexican culture, and is reminiscent of a Mexican market with a warm, laid-back environment, according to SSP America.
The restaurant is located near gate B23. SSP America is the exclusive food & beverage operator at Terminal 4.
Roel Huinink, President and CEO of Terminal 4 operator JFK International Air Terminal (JFKIAT), commented: “With Mi Casa’s opening, we are providing a memorable dining experience featuring unique and authentic Mexican dishes to the 21.6 million annual travellers who pass through our terminal. We are thrilled for our continued partnership with SSP America, which allows us to offer the highest quality of dining options at Terminal 4.”
SSP America Chief Executive Officer Michael Svagdis said: “The success of Terminal 4’s culinary programme is in large part due to our extraordinary partnership with JFKIAT who share our commitment to offering travellers a diverse variety of cuisines reflective of T4’s global passenger base. Mi Casa is a welcome addition sure to be a big draw for passengers.”
