The West Coast-based carrier has introduced <em>Chef\u2019s (tray) Table<\/em> \u2014 a new culinary series that brings gourmet, regionally inspired dishes to First Class passengers on select coast-to-coast flights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The concept? Rotating seasonal menus crafted by celebrated chefs with deep ties to the Pacific Coast food scene. First up: <strong>Chef Brady Ishiwata Williams<\/strong>, the award-winning talent behind Seattle\u2019s Tomo. If you\u2019ve ever dreamt of having a Michelin-adjacent meal while cruising at 35,000 feet, this is your moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This isn\u2019t Alaska\u2019s first foray into culinary collabs \u2014 you might remember their 2023 partnership with San Francisco\u2019s Chef Brandon Jew. That one was such a hit, they decided to make the chef-curated experience a regular thing. Chef Jew is officially back in the rotation, with more names (and flavors) likely to follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThese chefs don\u2019t just cook, they bring their communities with them,\u201d said Todd Traynor-Corey, Alaska\u2019s VP of Guest Experience. \u201cIt\u2019s more than food \u2014 it\u2019s about values, storytelling, and celebrating local culture.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And it shows. Chef Brady\u2019s background is rooted in family diners and fine dining alike \u2014 from Seattle\u2019s legendary Canlis to his own spot, Tomo, which opened in 2021. For Alaska, he\u2019s designed a First Class menu available on flights between <strong>Seattle and New York-JFK, Newark, and Washington D.C.<\/strong>, starting <strong>June 5<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s on the tray? Think <strong>Mochi Waffle &amp; Fried Chicken<\/strong> for breakfast, drizzled with apple miso butter and tamari-maple syrup. For dinner, <strong>Glazed Short Rib<\/strong> from Klingemann Farms takes the spotlight. Heading back west? Expect <strong>Chilled Buckwheat Soba with Ahi Tuna Tataki<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even better: Alaska Airlines lets you <strong>pre-order<\/strong> your meal on flights over 1,100 miles, giving passengers up to five chef-crafted options to choose from before boarding. It\u2019s inflight dining with purpose, flavor, and a real West Coast twist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hungry yet? <a href=\"https:\/\/news.alaskaair.com\/guest-experience\/alaska-airlines-launches-chefs-tray-table-first-class-experience\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/news.alaskaair.com\/guest-experience\/alaska-airlines-launches-chefs-tray-table-first-class-experience\/\">Learn more here.<\/a> <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alaska Airlines is upping the in-flight food game in a seriously delicious way.
