Mafraq lies in the Al Mafraq Governorate, in the north-east of Jordan, and the table here is Levantine and Bedouin at its core. A private jet menu for OJMF starts with mezze: hummus, moutabal, labneh with za'atar and olive oil, tabbouleh, fattoush. These travel well, so they make dependable private jet platters, packed in their own containers and plated by you in the galley.
The inflight menu for hot dishes leans on mansaf, the lamb and jameed dish of the north, with rice and pine nuts; it comes with the yoghurt sauce apart so nothing is cooked through before service. Maqluba, grilled lamb and chicken, and kofta with tahini are other local specialities that finish in the oven and re-plate cleanly. Gourmet inflight meals built on these dishes read as Jordanian without being heavy for a short sector.
Private jet food for the snack drawer is simple and local: dates, roasted nuts, flatbread with za'atar, halva, and kunafa cut by portion. Private jet snacks like these keep for hours in a drawer and need no oven. Local specialities of the Al Mafraq Governorate change little with the season, but fresh herbs, tomatoes and cucumbers are best in the warmer months.
