The chef's menu at LST

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

The Altitude Dining kitchenAustralia

To start
Tasmanian Atlantic Salmon, Cold-Smoked
House-cured and cold-smoked over Tasmanian oak, served with cultured cream, native finger lime, and sourdough crackers. Clean, saline, and precisely portioned for cabin service.
To start
Pacific Oysters with Leatherwood Honey Mignonette
Half-dozen Tasmanian oysters, chilled on crushed ice, dressed with a mignonette of leatherwood honey, shallot, and white wine vinegar. Travel-packed to hold temperature through boarding.
Hot main
Cape Grim Beef Cheek, Slow-Braised
Northwest Tasmanian grass-fed beef cheek braised in local pinot noir, finished with Tasmanian black truffle butter and midlands heritage potato purée. Retains integrity at altitude.
Cold main
Tamar Valley Salmon, Poached Cold Plate
Poached Tasmanian salmon fillet, chilled, with a Dijon and dill crème fraîche, pickled cucumber ribbon, and toasted rye. A composed cold main suited to shorter sectors.
Morning
Tasmanian Smoked Salmon Benedict Tray
Cold-smoked salmon with soft-set egg, hollandaise in a sealed side pot, and toasted English muffin — a morning option designed for reheating in a compact galley.
Pâtisserie
Leatherwood Honey and Cream Tart

Inflight Catering · Launceston

Launceston private jet catering

Launceston sits at the heart of northern Tasmania, a region that has quietly become one of Australia's most serious food and wine territories. The Tamar Valley reaches the airport's doorstep, and with it comes some of the country's most expressive cool-climate pinot noir, pristine Atlantic salmon from the island's cold river systems, and grass-fed beef that reflects the particular quality of Tasmanian pasture. For inflight catering, that geography is not an abstraction — it translates directly into what arrives in your galley. Our sourcing network across northern Tasmania means fresh local ingredients are built into every order placed through LST. Berry farms near Lilydale, artisan cheesemakers in the Huon corridor, and small-batch smoked seafood producers across the island all feed into menus we compose for aircraft departing Launceston. Launceston private jet catering, at its best, is an expression of the island itself.

Regional Catering Menu · Launceston

Inflight catering menu for Launceston

Tasmania's cold, clean waters produce Atlantic salmon and Pacific oysters of a calibre that needs very little intervention. Our kitchen treatments reflect that restraint: cured, cold-smoked, or simply dressed with native finger lime and cultured cream, these centrepieces carry the journey without losing their integrity at altitude. Alongside the seafood, local leatherwood honey — harvested from old-growth forest in the island's west — appears in dressings, glazes, and pâtisserie, lending a distinctly Tasmanian note that passengers consistently remark upon. Wool Bay and Cape Grim beef, raised on the island's northwest corner, forms the backbone of our hot main offerings from Launceston. Slow-cooked cuts retain moisture at cabin pressure better than quick-sear proteins, and our chefs select accordingly. Accompaniments draw on Tasmanian black truffle in season, heritage-variety potatoes from the midlands, and single-estate dairy from farms within the region — aircraft catering built around ingredients that simply do not need to travel far.
