Marin Invades Terminal 2
Next time you’re flyiNg out of town, before you go, grab a piece of marin at a market that foodies on
yelp are saying has “the best airport food they’ve ever had.” Napa farms market at Sfo’s terminal 2
(which looks like a mini ferry Building and even was designed by the same architect) features a host of
marin-based suppliers providing what they call farm to flight food. San Anselmo’s michael levine, Ceo
of tastes on the fly, the company behind the market, says, “We are trending 30 percent above projections
after just our first year of operation and intend to open more Napa farms markets in other airports and
select street locations nationwide.” MELISSA GARDNER WHI TE
