The chef's menu at SJU

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

Inflight Catering · San Juan

San Juan private jet catering

Puerto Rico's food culture is specific and deep: sofrito built from recao and ají caballero, pork slow-roasted over wood, plantains at every stage of ripeness — tostones fried hard, amarillos caramelized soft, mofongo shaped to order. These are not decorations on a generic Caribbean menu. They are the island's actual table, and they travel well. The same mofongo that anchors a San Juan restaurant kitchen boards a cabin at SJU just as well as any continental option. The island's produce circuit runs close. Chayote, yautía, and breadfruit come out of the mountainous interior; the southeast coast supplies seafood landed the same morning. Rum from the distilleries of the north — Bacardí, Don Q — is as valid a cabin provision as any European spirit, and often more appropriate for the departure. We source from this supply chain, not from a generic regional hub, and the difference shows on the tray.

Regional Catering Menu · San Juan

Inflight catering menu for San Juan

Lechón from Guavate — slow-roasted pork from the roadside corridor in Cayey — is the island's most serious food tradition and holds cabin service well when portioned and packed correctly. Bacalaítos, salt-cod fritters made crisp to order, work as a cold-start course alongside a sofrito-braised chicken that stays coherent in galley heat. For sweet finishes, tembleque — Puerto Rican coconut pudding — and guava pastelillos give passengers something genuinely local rather than a generic European pâtisserie selection. Every item is portioned for tray service and labeled for the allergens that matter on an island menu: shellfish, tree nuts, and gluten.
