The chef's menu at YKM

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

The Altitude Dining kitchenUnited States

Yakima Valley Charcuterie Board
Columbia Basin cured meats, local chèvre, orchard fruit preserves, and toasted sourdough crackers — a cold plate built entirely from producers within the valley.
To start
Rainier Cherry and Burrata Salad
Seasonal Rainier cherries, torn burrata, toasted hazelnuts, and a sherry vinaigrette. Available through early summer when the local cherry harvest is at its peak.

Morning
Smoked Salmon and Orchard Apple Tartine

Yakima private jet catering

Yakima sits at the heart of Washington State's high desert wine and hop country, where volcanic soils and long summer days produce some of the finest apples, pears, cherries, and Rieslings found anywhere on the continent. That proximity to the source is not incidental — it shapes every menu we build for aircraft departing from YKM. Stone fruit harvested the same morning, orchard-pressed juice, and wine sourced directly from Yakima Valley appellations are standard considerations rather than premium add-ons. The valley's agricultural depth extends well beyond fruit. Yakima County supplies a significant share of the nation's hop harvest, and the surrounding rangelands yield well-aged beef and lamb that travel no distance at all before reaching your galley. For Yakima private jet catering, freshness is a structural advantage, not a marketing claim.

Regional Catering Menu · Yakima

Inflight catering menu for Yakima

Our culinary team builds Yakima orders around what is actually in season: crisp Honeycrisp and Cosmic Crisp apples in autumn, Bing and Rainier cherries through early summer, and asparagus in the spring flush that the lower valley is known for. Cold plates lean on these ingredients naturally — charcuterie boards anchored by local chèvre, cured meats, and fruit preserves made within the valley. Hot mains draw on slow-braised Columbia Basin beef and herb-roasted lamb, finished to galley-ready standards and packed for effortless service at altitude. Wine and beverage pairings are treated with the same rigour. Yakima Valley AVA produces benchmark Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Riesling; we can curate a small cabin selection sourced from producers within the appellation. Sparkling water, cold-pressed orchard juices, and locally roasted coffee round out the offering. Dietary requirements — including kosher, which requires 24 hours' lead time — are accommodated across the full menu.

Private Jet Catering FAQ · Yakima

Frequently asked

We ask for a minimum of four hours for standard orders. More complex builds — multi-course hot meals, large passenger counts, or kosher requirements — benefit from 24 hours' notice. Kosher orders strictly require that full 24-hour lead time.
