00:04So which ones score the best for food and drink experiences?
00:07Well, Food & Wine has done its due diligence and has now released the 2025 Global Tastemakers Awards,
00:13highlighting the most unforgettable food and drink experiences across the U.S. and around the world.
00:19Both of New York City's airports, LaGuardia and JFK, took the fourth and third spots respectively,
00:24with Chicago's O'Hare taking number two.
00:26The Windy City's travel hub has maintained that spot since 2023,
00:30with the airport hosting pop-up food festivals in partnership with the James Beard Foundation.
00:34Perhaps unsurprisingly, the busiest airport in the U.S. also boasts the number one spot,
00:39with Hartsfield-Jackson, Atlanta Airport, and Georgia ranking first.
00:43Not only does the airport have 160 dining options for travelers, but also some of the best regional food,
00:49including many southern soul food options.
00:51Food & Wine's editor-in-chief and vice president said about the rankings,
00:55this year's list is designed for travelers, not tourists.
00:58For people who want to understand what makes a place tick, one unforgettable bite or sip at a time.
