My flight back to LA was in the morning, so I didn't have time to eat before I got to the airport. Hence, I had to find some breakfast at the International Terminal. I had read that there were fewer food options to choose from after security, so I decided to get a bite at the food court before customs.
Came across this Hungry Jack's in the T1 food court and decided to give it a try. If you are not from Australia, you probably don't recognize this brand name. But you might if you saw the logo. That is because Hungry Jack's is the Australian name for Burger King. The Jack in the company name is derived from the first name of the owner of the BK fast food franchise in Australia.
The Hungry Jack's menu has a lot of the same offerings you find at Burger King like the signature Whopper burger. As it was the morning though, I had to choose from the breakfast menu offerings. Offerings here are pretty comparable to what you will find at McDonald's.
Since I want to try something different when I am visiting an out of country fast food chain, I decided to try the promo, Brekky Hero value meal ($7.50). The sandwich comes with a hash brown and your choice of coffee drink. I decided to get a latte, which came from a coffee machine.
The Brekky Hero was interesting as the bun was like the ones that BK uses for their chicken sandwiches, except the toppings inside contained bacon, eggs, cheese and a hash brown. It was pretty filling for a breakfast sandwich and the price for the meal was reasonable given that this is the airport. It seems like Hungry Jack's has better pricing than the McD's at the airport.
If you are looking for inexpensive food to fill you up before your flight out, this Hungry's Jack is a good option. It is close to the entrance to customs, so it is conveniently located if you are in a rush to grab a meal before heading airside. read more
