Private jet menu for Patterson

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

The Altitude Dining kitchenUnited States

To start
Atchafalaya Crawfish Bisque
Freshwater crawfish from the basin simmered with a dark roux, finished with a measure of dry sherry and portioned in sealed thermal cups. Rich, deep and unmistakably south Louisiana.
Cold main
Gulf Shrimp Remoulade on Butter Lettuce
Wild-caught Gulf shrimp poached and chilled, dressed in a sharp Creole remoulade of whole-grain mustard, horseradish and cider vinegar, served over crisp butter lettuce cups.
Hot main
Chicken and Andouille Gumbo
A file-thickened gumbo built on a patient dark roux, with free-range chicken and house-smoked andouille from a New Iberia producer. Portioned sous-vide for clean reheating at altitude, served over long-grain Louisiana rice.
Morning
Cane Syrup and Pecan Brioche French Toast
Thick-cut brioche soaked overnight, pan-finished to a caramel crust and finished with genuine Vermilion Parish cane syrup and toasted river-bottom pecans. A morning dish that requires no apology.
Pâtisserie
Praline Religieuse
A choux pastry tower filled with pecan praline cream and glazed with a café-au-lait fondant — a patisserie interpretation of the New Orleans street confection, travel-stable and individually boxed.
To finish
Creole Cream Cheese Pots with Cane Sugar Tuile
A Louisiana original: tangy, loose-set creole cream cheese layered with macerated Ponchatoula strawberries when in season, topped with a gossamer cane-sugar tuile. Light, regional and quietly memorable.

Private aviation catering at PTN

Patterson sits at the confluence of the Atchafalaya River and the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, a community shaped by crawfish boats, sugarcane fields and the unhurried rhythms of south Louisiana. The surrounding parishes supply some of the most distinctive ingredients in North America — blue crab, wild-caught shrimp, heritage rice, andouille and cane syrup — and our sourcing network draws on all of it. With New Iberia sixty-four kilometres to the west and Lafayette eighty-three kilometres north, we can move fresh regional produce from farm and dock to galley with the kind of speed that keeps menus genuinely seasonal. The culinary geography here is unusually rich. New Orleans, one hundred and eight kilometres to the east, anchors a tradition of French-Creole refinement; Baton Rouge contributes its own Acadian larder; and the small towns in between — Houma, Opelousas, the cane country around New Iberia — each hold specialist producers that rarely appear in airport catering of any kind. Altitude Dining has mapped that network so that Patterson private jet catering reflects where the aircraft actually is, not a generic Gulf Coast menu assembled elsewhere.

Regional Catering Menu · Patterson

Patterson inflight catering

Our kitchen team composes menus around the seasons of the Atchafalaya. In spring and early summer that means freshwater crawfish — étouffée, bisque, tails folded cold into butter lettuce cups — alongside soft-shell crab from the coastal marshes. Autumn brings the cane harvest and with it genuine sorghum and cane-syrup glazes, pecans from the river-bottom groves and the first cool weather that makes slow-cooked dishes worth eating. Year-round, Gulf shrimp and oysters from the Vermilion and Barataria Bays give the menu a salinity and sweetness that farmed product simply cannot replicate. Beyond the immediate marsh and delta, the Cajun and Creole traditions allow us to compose dishes that travel well without losing character — court-bouillon set in a sealed terrine, chicken and andouille gumbo portioned and chilled in sous-vide pouches for reheating at altitude, praline confections wrapped for the cabin. Kosher requirements are accommodated with a minimum twenty-four hours' notice. Every order, however brief the turnaround, is packed galley-ready so that crew can load and serve without rearranging containers mid-flight.
