The chef's menu at IQQ

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

The Altitude Dining kitchenChile

To start
Reineta ceviche, Atacama coast
Cold-water reineta, ají amarillo, Azapa valley lime, fresh coriander — chilled, individually portioned, ready to serve from the galley.
Cold main
Pisco-cured Tarapacá salmon
Thin-sliced, cured with regional pisco and dill, served with a quinoa tabbouleh using Andean white quinoa and pickled red onion.
Hot main
Cazuela de cordero altiplánico
High-altitude lamb, slow-braised with potato, merkén, and dried Andean chilli — portions well, reheats without losing structure on longer sectors.
To start
Locos al vapor, parsley oil
Chilean abalone steamed to order, finished with parsley-oil emulsion and sea salt from the Atacama — a clean, direct expression of the IQQ coast.

Inflight Catering · Iquique

Iquique private jet catering

Iquique's food culture is built around the sea. The Atacama coast produces some of the finest locos — Chilean abalone — in the country, alongside razor clams, sea urchin, and the dense, cold-water reineta that local kitchens handle with precision rather than ceremony. These are not tourist dishes; they are what the city's best restaurants have served for decades, and they travel well in the correct galley packaging. Inland, the influence of the altiplano runs through the menu: quinoa from the Andean communities above the Tarapacá valley, dried chilli varieties that add depth without heat, and charqui — salt-dried llama — that chefs use as a seasoning the way a European kitchen uses anchovy. A well-composed IQQ departure can carry the full register of northern Chilean cuisine, from the shoreline to the high plateau.

Reineta ceviche — dressed with ají amarillo, coriander, and lime from the Azapa valley — is the most direct expression of what this coast produces, and it holds well in chilled service. Locos al vapor, finished with a parsley-oil emulsion, translate cleanly to a first-course plating. For a warmer option, cazuela de cordero altiplánico uses lamb raised above 3,000 metres, slow-cooked with potato and merkén; it portions well into individual containers and reheats without losing structure. Pisco-cured salmon, sourced from the Tarapacá region's small aquaculture operations, works as a cold starter or a light main on shorter sectors.
