From the Riviera to the Capital, Let the Season Lead the Way
Summer in France is not just a matter of temperature—it’s a state of mind. It’s the scent of lavender drifting through the streets of Saint-Tropez, the golden light over the limestone façades of Aix-en-Provence, and the way a fresh tomato tastes when it’s just been sliced under the sun. Flying through France in summer means moving through regions rich in culinary identity—and for those traveling by private jet, every detail matters, especially what’s on the plate.
At Flying Seahorse, we specialize in private jet catering in France, crafting menus that reflect both the rhythm of the season and the refinement expected in the world of private aviation. Each item is designed not only to impress, but also to perform at altitude—retaining flavor, freshness, and elegance from kitchen to cabin.
Whether you’re flying from Nice to Paris or the reverse, we invite you to experience summer as it was meant to be tasted: bright, beautiful, and effortlessly refined.
Seasonal Menus for Private Jet Catering in France
The Riviera in a Dish: Where Freshness Takes Flight
There is a certain lightness to the Côte d’Azur that’s impossible to replicate. It’s in the salty breeze of the coast, the vivid color of its markets, and the way food is celebrated as a simple pleasure. Our summer menus draw inspiration directly from this region, bringing its spirit on board with every bite.
We begin with starters that are crisp, cool, and delicately aromatic. These dishes are built to refresh without overwhelming:
The spicy prawns and citrus salad is a symphony of texture and flavor—succulent prawns tossed in a light vinaigrette with citrus zest and herbaceous notes.
The Greek-style vegetable dish, prepared with orange, olive oil, coriander and basil, offers balance and brightness in every forkful.
The Bömlo salmon with beetroot, subtly cured and served chilled, brings a touch of color and Nordic influence to the plate—perfect for midday flights.
For a luxurious twist, our Langoustine & seaweed skewer—part of our signature canapé selection—is a refined nod to the Riviera’s seafood tradition. Its clean brininess and delicate texture make it an ideal summer delicacy, especially when served shortly after takeoff.

From Sea to Sky: When Technique Meets Tradition
Seafood, when handled with care, has a unique capacity to evoke both indulgence and simplicity. It’s a cornerstone of French coastal cuisine, and a staple of our summer menus. But what sets Flying Seahorse apart is how we adapt each preparation to the airborne setting.
Fish and shellfish behave differently at altitude—their flavor intensifies, their textures can shift. That’s why our culinary team, trained in both aviation catering and French gastronomic technique, selects and prepares each protein with precision.
On board, we serve:
Turbot “Meunière”, a French classic elevated with pan-crisped skin, lemon reduction, and impeccable balance.
Grilled lobster on Binchotan, paired with spaghetti and lobster bisque infused with red curry—rich, but never heavy.
Pollak with burnt leeks and wild herbs, designed to carry smokiness and structure while remaining gentle on the palate.
And for those seeking true indulgence, we recommend the Scallops with beetroot, green Sichuan pepper and caviar—a centerpiece from our gourmet menu. This dish harmonizes brininess, spice, and floral acidity in a way that remains balanced at altitude. It’s not just memorable—it’s magnetic.
Parisian Elegance, Perfectly Timed
As your aircraft leaves the coastline and ascends toward Paris, the menu evolves—just as the landscape does. The Riviera’s relaxed brightness gives way to the structure and poise of the capital. Our dishes follow suit.
This is where bistronomic influence begins to shine: rooted in tradition, elevated by creativity, and polished by discipline. In this phase of the journey, our clients often seek something more layered, more architectural—an experience worthy of the destination ahead.
Among our most requested summer mains:
Macaroni stuffed with black truffle, artichoke and foie gras, finished under a fine parmesan crust—elegant, intense, and utterly Parisian.
Roasted lamb with carrot pulp and ginger condiment, where sweetness and spice meet the delicate richness of slow-cooked meat.
Stuffed poultry medallions with poached pear and Albufera sauce, a dish that feels both nostalgic and innovative—France on a plate.
These creations reflect the kind of experience that sets Flying Seahorse apart. We don’t just serve meals—we serve moments, crafted with precision, grace, and a deep understanding of private jet catering in France at its most refined.

Light, Sweet, and Perfectly Balanced
In summer, dessert is an invitation to pause. It should refresh, not weigh down. It should offer surprise without excess. Our pastry chefs design each sweet dish to close the journey with elegance and ease.
The banana and yuzu tartlet is a favorite: airy, citrusy, with tropical depth that feels indulgent but never overpowering. The fruity swirl with jasmine tea is delicate and floral—an expression of summer in texture and tone. And the pear and elderflower dessert captures something rare: a finale that feels as luxurious as it is restrained.
Pair any of these with our cold-pressed juices and smoothies, such as green detox (pineapple, lemon, cucumber) or carrot-ginger-apple, for a finish that leaves your guests refreshed, revived, and fully satisfied.
