Holiday Food for the Traveling Heart

Holidays, known for their jovial cheer and festive spirits, are often accompanied by stress and periods of intense planning. Trips, flights, and presents must be planned accordingly and as much as you try to dodge it wherever you go everyone else seems to be going there too. However, there is a saving grace, and it is not whatever present you will end up in the yearly round of white elephant. It is the food. Holiday food is the best, and the special occasion means a special feast of assorted meats, macaroni and cheeses, and wine that goes perfectly with the brisk chill of the outdoors. Unfortunately, people working at the airport do not get to experience this to the fullest, instead working stressful hours trying to make sure we get to our holiday destinations safely and in a timely matter. 

The Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport in Texas is seeking vendors who are willing and able to provide breakfast and lunch catering to their staff. This is a great opportunity to give back to the people that give us so much during the holidays, the real life Santas and the reason so many of us are able to smile in the holiday season. For caterers, it represents an opportunity to show off your skills, and maybe even put in a holiday twist to the menu, helping the people attending relax and enjoy the company they presently have. It is also an incredible chance to try different foods. Working at an airport exposes people to all sorts of different cultures, but once you leave it is kind of hard to reconnect with those cultures, especially during the holiday season where most families stick to the usual holiday menu. Holiday catering at an international airport gives the unique opportunity to sample culinary dishes from around the globe, exploring new tastes and enriching your palette. 

The most important thing about the holiday season is family, and although we say that there is such a thing as a work family, it rings true for those that work in international airports. They work together to ensure the safety of thousands of people each day, so cooperation and trust is absolutely necessary. The Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport is putting this bid out to help their family enjoy the holidays as much as they can, and interested contractors can click here to learn more information. The bid closes September 13, 2024 at 2:00 PM CDT.
