With air travel still being restricted in countries across the world, frequent travelers are missing one surprising aspect of flying: airline food.

Fortunately, AirAsia seems to have anticipated this demand for the tasty Asian dishes they serve during flights. The Malaysia-based airline is gearing to roll out a chain of restaurants that serve its in-flight meals in locations across the world.

Read on to find out where you can go to order it.

From Planes to Restaurants

AirAsia: The first Santan cafe is located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and opened its doors in December 2019

The news comes months after AirAsia opened its first cafe, Santan, which also serves some of the airline’s in-flight food. According to one report, Santan’s menu is about 30% the same as what you can order on a flight.

AirAsia’s planned expansion of its restaurants will see the airline take its cuisine to China and the United Kingdom. Stores in these locations are slated to be opened by 2021.

There are currently 15 Santan locations already serving food in Malaysia. According to the Malay Mail, the airline’s goal is to bring this number to 100 stores across the world by 2022.

Best of Malaysia

On the menu are drinks like Calamansi Iced Tea and Teh Tarik as well as dishes like Nasi Padang, a dish of steamed rice served with other dishes like Beef Rendang, and Nasi Lemak, a dish of steamed rice cooked in coconut milk.

With the first Santan restaurant being equipped with touchscreen self-order kiosks, it might not be too difficult to make its upcoming locations comply with COVID-19 safety measures as well.

AirAsia’s in-flight food has been popular with flyers in recent years with over 24 million Santan meals being served in 2018 alone.
