The Delta terminal at LaGuardia airport in New York City is giving us reasons to skip the flight into Newark this Spring.

According to The New York Times, the list of new restaurants and concessions from all star chefs in partnership with OTC Management, has grown significantly. Select operations will open this Sunday, with the remainder of the concepts arriving at Terminal C in fall 2013.

Of the fourteen projects, we're the most excited to sink our teeth into: the Empire Tavern from Balthazar's Riad Nasr and Lee Hanson, Kombu from Jamison Blankenship (formerly of Morimoto), and Victory Grill from Andrew Carmellini. For a full list of concepts, click here.

Looks like the folks at OTC Management are jumping on the captive venue trend with airport food revitalization, as we predicted in 2008.
