Le Grand Comptoir
2024 Mar 24
Terminal 7 at JFK doesn’t offer a huge amount in terms of food, all I’d say is don’t get tempted to the Charcuterie Board at Le Grand Comptoir…it’s amazingly disappointing and almost inedible.

I received two hand rolled marble-sized balls of blue cheese, two slices of dry and stale orange cheese, two 1cm x 2cm slices of stale brie and three 2cm x 3cm of sourdough bread that were so thin it was painful to look at them…add the two slices of prosciutto and a couple of small discs that were probably once salami until someone left them out on the worktop so they resembled a mummification process and your $21 charcuterie board is complete, all served on wooden board not much larger than a table tennis bat.

Now I understand that it’s a captive market in an airport terminal but even the server looked embarrass as I asked him if this was the sampler menu and the full charcuterie board would be served after!

Safe to say that I didn’t spend any more money in Le Grand Comptoir and went elsewhere in the terminal, being ripped off isn’t something I enjoy and this was akin to a culinary mugging.

In summary, save your money and eat elsewhere.
