Travel News from Vikkie
Bacon & cheese egg bites and pomegranate juice on Amtrak? Train food isn’t known to be tasty, but Amtrak seems like it’s trying to change that. Amtrak released a new menu on the Northeast Corridor trains and some long-distance trains. Specifically, the new menu, which I detailed on Twitter, features more vegan options—like a Vegan Asian Noodle Bowl—and an expanded non-alcoholic drink menu. Full menu here!
Why you should care: Amtrak is investing more in the passenger experience, especially as travel roars back from the pandemic. More, healthier options are always a good thing. The salads and sandwiches on Acela and Northeast Regional trains are also getting cheaper, between $.50 and $1.50.
