American Airlines Is Giving Onboard Service a Major Upgrade
American Airlines Is Giving Onboard Service a Major Upgrade originally appeared on Parade. Attention all traveling foodies: American Airlines is rolling out a deliciously major upgrade. The airline is celebrating some of its popular summer travel destinations with a new European-inspired in-flight dining menu beginning June 11 for customers flying in Flagship Business, a Flagship Suite Preferred seat, or a Flagship Suite seat on select European routes. Routes that will feature the menu include Paris (CDG) and Nice (NCE), France; Rome (FCO), Venice (VCE), Naples (NAP), and Milan (MXP), Italy; Barcelona (BCN) and Madrid (MAD), Spain; Frankfurt (FRA) and Munich (MUC), Germany; London (LHR) and Edinburgh (EDI), United Kingdom; and Dublin (DUB), Ireland. The menu items inspired by France are ratatouille and a porcini short rib paired with polenta and blue cheese, while the Italian-inspired menu features an herbed short rib with pea risotto and pan-seared halibut with fingerling potatoes. Would it be a German menu without schnitzel and spaetzle? American Airlines isn't taking that risk, adding both to the menu with potatoes and blistered tomatoes accompanying the schnitzel, and grilled zucchini, cremini mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes joining the spaetzle. The theme continues with the Spain-inspired menu items, going coastal with a mar y mar paella and a seared sea bass served with squid ink rice, while the U.K. is represented with mustard-crumb lamb served with turnips, peas and baby carrots, and a peppercorn short rib with roasted potatoes and seasonal vegetables. That's not the only change being implemented, as the airline is now giving customers more time to make their pre-order selections by adjusting the pre-order meal window to 20 hours before departure, giving them four additional hours than they currently have to select their in-flight meal.

Atlanta Spanish tapas restaurant to open in South End
The Iberian Pig, a Spanish-inspired tapas restaurant from Atlanta, will open in South End in 2026. Why it matters: The Iberian Pig is the first tenant announced for 110 East, South End's 23-story office tower that finished construction in March 2024. Near the East/West light rail station, the building has more than 5,800 square feet of ground-floor retail. The Charlotte Ledger first reported the opening. Dig in: Castellucci Hospitality Group opened the original The Iberian Pig in Decatur, Georgia, in 2009, later expanding to the Atlanta neighborhood of Buckhead and Nashville. The family-run group also owns the Michelin-starred Mujō and the James Beard-nominated Cooks & Soldiers in Atlanta. Best bites: The Spain-inspired menu features traditional charcuteria and quesos and tapas. Standouts are the bacon-wrapped dates and pork cheek tacos, with new creations planned exclusively for the Charlotte location. The vibe: Expect an "eclectic, social atmosphere," according to a press release. What they're saying:"We've had our eyes set on Charlotte for a long time now and are truly ecstatic to bring The Iberian Pig to such a flourishing city," owner Federico Castellucci III says. "I have always loved the energy in Charlotte and we look forward to becoming a welcome part of the city's diverse and growing dining scene."
