The chef's menu at SMW

A short, working selection — not the full carte. This is what the kitchen boards most often for a Smara departure: classics that travel, plated for cabin altitude, sourced the same morning.

The Altitude Dining kitchenWestern Sahara (disputed territory)

To start
Spiced Lamb Kefta with Harissa Yoghurt
Hand-rolled lamb kefta seasoned with cumin, coriander and warm spice, served with a cold harissa-laced yoghurt and a wedge of preserved lemon. Travels well and reflects the wider Maghrebi flavour palette of the region.
Hot main
Slow-Braised Chicken with Saffron and Green Olives
A tagine-influenced preparation of free-range chicken braised low and long with saffron broth, cracked green olives and confit garlic. Galley-ready in a sealed vessel that retains moisture and aroma through reheating.
Cold main
Roasted Aubergine and Chickpea Salad
Charred aubergine and slow-cooked chickpeas dressed with aged red-wine vinegar, smoked paprika and fresh parsley. A robust cold main that holds its texture and flavour from kitchen to cabin.
Pâtisserie
Medjool Date and Almond Pastilla
Crisp warqa-style pastry filled with roasted almonds, Medjool dates and a hint of orange blossom water, dusted with icing sugar and cinnamon. A composed pâtisserie with regional character.
To finish
Semolina Cake with Orange Syrup
A dense, moist semolina cake soaked in a cardamom-scented orange syrup and finished with toasted pistachios. Sliced and individually wrapped for clean inflight service.
Morning
Eggs with Chermoula and Flatbread
Soft scrambled eggs folded with a bright chermoula of coriander, garlic and preserved lemon, served alongside warm, individually wrapped flatbread. A considered morning option suited to early departures.

Inflight Catering · Smara

Smara private jet catering

Smara sits deep in the Saharan interior, far from major supply corridors, which makes early coordination the single most important factor in a successful uplift here. Our network reaches across the region — drawing on sourcing connections near El Aaiún, some 160 kilometres to the west — to bring fresh provisions into an environment where logistics demand precision planning. The surrounding territory is spare and unhurried, and we treat that honestly. We do not promise hyperlocal market produce at the aircraft steps; we promise a cold chain that is managed from order confirmation to galley delivery, with a single point of contact keeping you informed throughout.

Regional Catering Menu · Smara

Inflight catering menu for Smara

Because Smara catering demands advance logistics, our culinary team builds menus around ingredients that travel well without any compromise to quality. Slow-braised proteins, well-seasoned grain dishes, preserved citrus dressings and robust pastry work all hold their integrity from our preparation kitchen to altitude — a discipline that actually rewards careful cooking rather than punishing it. For guests with specific requirements — dietary, religious or otherwise — lead time is everything at a remote desert airfield. Kosher certification requires a minimum 24 hours' notice as standard; other bespoke requests should be placed as early as the flight schedule permits. We confirm every order in under ten minutes and handle all substitutions through one dedicated contact.
