Jet Runway Café, exactly as its name conveys, sits along a
runway in a hangar at Fort Lauderdale’s Executive Airport. What this unique eatery
lacks in exterior design (except for the airplane windows of its entrance), is
more than made up for by the details of its interior and in its artful presentations
from the kitchen. The café’s expanse of glass along its front and side affords
all visitors a great view of the tarmac and planes taking off, landing or
awaiting the next trip. Its appropriately high-ceiling, airy interior is decked out in a
turbine and other aviation elements.

We had standard breakfasts of eggs, potatoes, and a piece of
their housemade light fried bread pudding (also available as a complete serving). Presentation here is all about the details: tiny cups with butter or catsup (no ugly bottles or alumium butter wrappers here); potatoes
served in a small dish atop the plated eggs. Simple fare but beautifully
delivered. They also serve Brioche Almond French toast, breakfast burritos,
pancakes and house made coffee cakes.

Service is excellent. I’ll be back for lunch during this
next week and hope I can find a parking space. It was impossible last Friday at
1 p.m. and I think I know why. With good food, a great wait staff and an exceptional setting, what’s not to return for? Stay tuned …
Open for private parties (great venue) only during the evening.
