Inflight catering in Tarsus

The Çukurova plain is among the most fertile stretches in the eastern Mediterranean: citrus groves, pomegranate orchards, and market gardens that supply tables as far as Istanbul. From Tarsus, that produce reaches our kitchen and your galley the same day. What boards at COV reflects what is actually growing within twenty kilometres of the ramp. Adana is twelve minutes east, and its culinary identity is unusually strong. Adana kebabı — hand-minced lamb and tail fat worked onto wide skewers over live charcoal — is not a regional variation; it is the original, and it travels well in the configurations we use for hot-hold delivery. Şalgam suyu, the fermented purple turnip brine that locals take alongside grilled meat, makes a striking and authentic palate-cleanser on shorter sectors. Both belong to the same table that built this region's reputation.

Regional Catering Menu · Tarsus

Local sourcing for COV

Orders out of LTDB lean on what the Cilician plain and the Taurus foothills produce rather than on imports. Locally pressed cold-extraction olive oil, fresh white cheese from the highland villages, and Çukurova's own flat-podded taze fasulye green beans anchor the lighter meal builds. For hot service, Adana kebabı platters are prepared to order and packaged in galley-ready trays that hold temperature through boarding; alongside them, içli köfte — bulgur shells filled with spiced minced lamb and walnut — make a compact, cabin-friendly starter that clients from the region recognize immediately. Seasonal stone fruit from the Taurus slopes — apricots, figs, and early cherries depending on the month — rounds the pastry and dessert options without needing to travel far.
