Sbarro

Ordered the combo.
A slice of pineapple, a slice of supreme, and a drink.
The extra time they put it in the oven to reheat makes the crust crispy with a hint of burnt….hit the freaking spot!

When you're travelling through an airport, it can be hard to know what food is worth your time and money.
That question becomes even more complicated when you tend to eat plant-based, and it can be hard to find a "safe" spot to eat. Luckily, while I was waiting for my flight to depart I stumbled across this lovely Sbarro tucked one of the food courts.
While Sbarro is generally known for their pizza, I didn't have the time to wait for a pizza to be made and cooked.
However, this wasn't a bother for me because I was able to order both their spaghetti with red sauce and the roasted potatoes, both items vegan and ready to eat! The potatoes were soft and fluffy on the inside, with that light crunch on the exterior of the potato to give it that nice texture.
The roasted potatoes are also cooked with peppers and onions, giving the dish a little more zest on the end. When I was talking with my cashier, he had mentioned that the spaghetti is not only tossed in olive oil but also cooked with garlic in the mix.
You can tell too, because the noodles not only had a hint of garlic notes, but also chunks of garlic amidst the noodles themselves.
While you can order meatballs as an addition to the spaghetti, for my purposes it was unnecessary. All in all, I ended up being extremely satisfied with my meal.
Oftentimes after a bite to eat in an airport I find I feel hungry still or that I spent far too much money.
Sbarro, however, filled me to the brim with quality, delicious carbs.
Certainly helped me nap on the flight home!

Our boss is a dork, so we showed up to the airport early.
I’m so glad that we did.
This Sbarro is the best one in the continental United States.
I’m not sure about overseas because I haven’t been to a Sbarro in any other country.
Here’s what you need to do (trust me) - book a morning flight to San Antonio, head the the Sbarro in the B terminal, say hello to Alexis, and order a pepperoni pizza with gravy.
Sounds crazy, right? Just do it.
Michael Scott was right…this IS the best pizza in New York (which is in the continental United States).
