USA. Paradies Lagardère and Kent Rathbun Concepts are offering travellers “variety and a taste of local cuisine” with their new restaurant at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport.
Abacus is located in Terminal D and is the second of three outlets the companies are opening at the airport under the terms of a contract award. Whitetail Bistro was unveiled in September 2016.
Abacus’ menu features contemporary global cuisine and uses seasonal ingredients, according to the companies. Signature small plates include the Lobster Scallion ‘Shooters’ and the Hudson Valley Foie Gras.
The restaurant will also serve breakfast, and offers travellers items such as granola with honey yoghurt, seasonal fruit or berries, or a three-egg omelette featuring ham, spinach, mushrooms and white cheddar.
“We’re excited to bring Abacus to Dallas/Fort Worth, providing travellers variety and a taste of the local cuisine,” said Paradies Lagardère Senior Vice President, Food and Beverage Bill Casey. “Paradies Lagardère’s offerings through Kent Rathbun Concepts, Abacus and Whitetail Bistro, offer sophisticated dining environments and delicious, high-quality menu offerings that provide the first-class, internationally-renowned experience travellers expect at Dallas/Fort Worth.”
Kent Rathbun Concepts Owner William Hyde commented: “Bringing the Abacus concept to Dallas/Fort Worth Airport is something I believe sophisticated travellers are seeking in terms of airport fine dining.
“It is an honour to work with Paradies Lagardère and we look forward to bringing such an internationally-renowned restaurant to travellers from around the world.”
