A blog called The Daily Meal recently released a ranking of airport dining around the globe. If you're hungry, the place to fly to for a meal near Gate Whatever is Barcelona's Porta Gaig restaurant. The establishment is owned by a chef whose main gig in the Catalan city has earned one star in the Michelin  firmament.

Winning the figurative bronze medal is Tortas Frontera, Rick Bayless' fun outpost at Chicago's O'Hare Airport. My wife and I ate there last month, and took some food home to New Jersey. Yes, it was worth it, especially as it was our main meal immediately after Hurricane Sandy.

The complete story summarizing The Daily Meal post appeared in Bloomberg News.
