Amtrak Expands Dining Menus
With
new expanded dining car menus introduced this month on all long-distance
Amtrak trains, passengers enjoying the unique, first-class railroad dining
experience are enjoying an even greater variety of appetizers, entrées
and desserts. The expanded menus offer all passengers exciting new selections
for breakfast, lunch and dinner - many with larger portion sizes and reduced
prices.

Breakfast selections include a variety of hot and cold entrees such as
pancakes, a three-cheese quiche, and cooked-to-order eggs as well as a
continental breakfast. One breakfast entrée (a quiche or frittata)
is available on the lunch menu for late risers. Lunch selections include
burgers, a turkey and swiss sandwich, beef chili, chicken pot pie and
a green salad. A Gardenburger (vegetarian burger) is available on each
of the three lunch menus. Also, a tossed salad is now served with selected
lunch entrees.
For dinner, passengers may choose beef tenderloin, New York strip steak,
seared catfish, stuffed chicken or ravioli primavera, among other entrees.
An evening special - priced from $9.00 to $11.00 - is now available with
every dinner menu. In addition, a selection of wines may be served with
dinner at a price of $8.00 per 12.5 ounce bottle.
Dessert selections include cheesecake, apple pie, chocolate bunt cake
or ice cream. Four different desserts are available on each of the lunch
and dinner menus. Coffee, tea, milk or juice is now included in the price
of the main entrée for all meals.
