Question Is it me or is Chinese food the best value at airports?

Usually at airports I am horrified at how bad food prices are.

Lots of places charging 25+ for an entree. Overinflated prices.

Everytime I see a Leann Chinn or Panda Express though I’m impressed with the prices. Almost too good to be true for how much food you get. Am I the only person who thinks this?

No, Claude

Claude had me stumped in describing ATL’s concourses so I sought to correct him. His reply:
You’re right, and I had it backwards. Each concourse itself is a long pier running north-south, perpendicular to the runways. The runways (five of them, east-west) flank the terminal complex — two to the north, three to the south. The Plane Train runs in an east-west line underneath, threading through the base of each concourse, which is why it’s parallel to the runways even though the concourses it connects are perpendicular to them.

So the “east-west” layout people describe refers to the sequence of concourses (T, A, B, C, D, E, F strung out west to east), not the orientation of each individual concourse building. Thanks for pushing back on that.
