“We wanted to create a menu that’s both dynamic and delicious, where one feels right at home, even while they travel.” “I’m thrilled to work with American Express to bring to the Centurion Lounge at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, dishes that have not only been elemental to my upbringing, but also nod to the local Seattle culture,” said Chef Kristi Brown. The menu at the Centurion Lounge at SEA will feature dishes like Trinidadian Spiced Pork Belly, Blackened Chicken Cobb Salad, and “Peach Cobbla” French Toast, her twist on the traditional breakfast treat. Her cuisine uses fresh local ingredients honoring traditional soul food and flavors from communities represented in the Pacific Northwest, including Southeast Asia and East and West Africa.

“Inspired by the vibrant Seattle dining and coffee scene, this lounge showcases the best of what Seattle has to offer, including a custom menu from the talented Chef Kristi Brown and our first full-service coffee bar with locally-roasted beans Seattle is known for.”Ĭhef Kristi Brown, James Beard Award semifinalist and owner and chef of Seattle-based Communion Restaurant and Bar, will bring her signature “Seattle Soul” cuisine to the lounge. “The new Centurion Lounge at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport delivers exactly what Card Members want while traveling – more space to relax and recharge and fantastic food and drink,” said Pablo Rivero, Vice President & General Manager, Global Lounge Experiences. Plus, the new location includes “Blue Roast by American Express,” a coffee bar serving specialty coffee, espresso drinks, and cold brew from local Seattle roaster Caffè Umbria, and a one-of-a-kind mural of the Seattle skyline made from coffee beans by celebrated artist Harold Caudio. It features spectacular views of the airfield and iconic Olympic mountains, ample room for guests to relax or work before their flight, and a locally-inspired menu from Seattle-based Communion Restaurant and Bar Executive Chef Kristi Brown. The new lounge is nearly triple the size of the original Centurion Lounge at SEA and now located in the newly created mezzanine level of the Central Terminal post-security. NEW YORK–Today American Express (NYSE: AXP) opened a new, 14,000 square foot Centurion Lounge at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA).
