Inflight Catering · Mandalay

Mandalay private jet catering

Upper Myanmar's culinary character is nothing like Yangon's, and nothing like the generic 'Asian fusion' that fills most galley boxes. Mandalay is the home of mont di — the dense, fermented-rice noodle soup that locals eat at dawn — and of nan gyi thoke, thick round noodles dressed with chicken, chickpea flour, and a sharp hit of fish paste. These are not dishes we put in the cabin unchanged; they inform the sourcing logic and flavour register of what we build for each departure from MDL. The Mandalay dry zone produces some of Myanmar's best tamarind, sesame, and pickled tea leaf — thanakha-infused preparations included — alongside river fish from the Irrawaddy that arrive at Zegyo Market each morning. We work with local suppliers close to the field so that what boards your aircraft at VYMD reflects where your passengers actually are, not where the nearest import warehouse is.

Regional Catering Menu · Mandalay

Inflight catering menu for Mandalay

For the cabin, we draw on Upper Myanmar's strength in clean, bold flavours rather than heavy sauces: slow-braised Shan-style river fish with turmeric and ginger, sesame-dressed salads with Mandalay tofu (the dense chickpea variety, not soy), tamarind-glazed chicken prepared to hold well in transit, and fresh pickled tea leaf salads — lahpet thoke — plated in sealed portions that travel without compromise. Dry-zone sesame brittle and jaggery-sweetened rice cakes work as cabin-friendly pâtisserie. Every component is built around ingredients sourced within the Mandalay region, verified same-day from Zegyo or the surrounding wholesale markets.
