Abstract
LSG Sky Chefs has been awarded the management of Japan Airlines’ (JAL) Sakura and First Class Lounges at Frankfurt Airport in Terminal 2.
The LSG Lounge team developed a new gastronomic concept, including the accompanying equipment, as well as the design of the facility.
It had the support of Takugo Kobayashi, an LSG Sky Chefs Japanese chef, and his team in the development of the culinary concept in order to guarantee the authenticity of the dishes and their compliance with the strict requirements of Japanese cuisine.
"It is very important for us to understand the airline's heritage and brand values and reflect them in our concept," explained Jean-Claude Dichtl, LSG lounge director operations and projects.
It began managing the JAL lounges in Frankfurt in early February.
