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.

Dust falling from the ceiling while the guy Nick wipes his nose with my bare hands making offering comments for all to hear while smelling like an ashtray! You think he's bad the manager Pat couldn't get any worse! I couldn't breathe she smelt like 10 ashtrays! I guess all they do it take smoke breaks and recycle old food! Making me wait for her to chat it up about her bias views on politics only to overcharge me. Grabbing ice with your bare hands too put in my drink is not okay! The other employees are...
Read moreOur 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...
