Private Jet Catering at Ratnagiri Airport (VARG / RTC), Ratnagiri
Your inflight catering at RTC is prepared in a temperature‑controlled facility with dedicated cold rooms and pastry stations, timed to your departure slot and sealed for airside transfer to Ratnagiri Airport.
For aviation catering at RTC, Chef Sena Dubois works with pomfret landed that morning at Ratnagiri's fish harbour, filleting each portion to equal weight so reheating times stay uniform across a galley oven set to convection. She pan‑sears the skin until it crisps, then finishes the flesh with a reduction of kokum, shallot and cracked black pepper—a preparation that holds its structure under vacuum seal and reheats without splitting. The fillet is plated over a bed of steamed red rice, the grain chosen because it doesn't clump when chilled and travels well in segmented containers. Alphonso mango, diced and macerated with lime zest, sits in a separate lidded ramekin to prevent moisture migration during the flight. Every element is labelled by allergen—fish, allium—and stacked in a single‑portion tray that fits standard half‑size trolley slots. For longer sectors she packs the curry base separately, instructing crew to combine and warm at 160 °C for twelve minutes, ensuring the fish doesn't overcook if service is delayed. Desserts—a set panna cotta infused with cardamom—are poured into domed plastic moulds that tolerate cabin pressure changes and stack without tipping.
Chef Sena Dubois brings refined culinary artistry to private aviation, blending classical French techniques with contemporary global influences. Specializing in elevated comfort cuisine and bespoke tasting menus, she crafts exceptional dining experiences tailored to the most discerning travelers at altitude.

Every dish is labelled for the fourteen major allergens—gluten, dairy, eggs, fish, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, peanuts, sesame, celery, mustard, lupin, molluscs, sulphites—and alternative proteins or plant‑based versions are prepared on separate cutting boards to prevent cross‑contact. Provide full details when you place the order.
High‑loader service for aviation catering at VARG is arranged where the airport confirms equipment availability at the time of order.
