Brazilian-Philly fusion, Hawaiian BBQ, and more new foods coming to Lincoln Financial Field
Craft Brazilian cocktails, Aussie meat pies, and new chicken cutlet, pepperoni, and vodka sauce sandwich “The Vincent.”
In honor of the NFL’s first South American regular season game that saw the Philadelphia Eagles take on the Green Bay Packers in São Paulo, Brazil, earlier this month, the Eagles are bringing home some of that Brazilian flavor to Lincoln Financial Field.
Through a culinary exchange that Aramark, the stadium’s food and beverage provider, is calling the “International Taste Games,” a Brazilian-Philly fusion savory pie and a São Paulo-famous cocktail will be offered at Lincoln Financial Field throughout the season. The 9th Street Market Pastel pairs Italian meats with Brazilian street food while the South Philly Caipirinha will highlight Brazil’s distilled spirit cachaça in a batch-made cocktail with origins from São Paulo.
“We wanted to showcase our 9th Street Market Pastel, it’s a Brazilian street fair food with a South Philly twist,” said James Hennessey, Lincoln Financial Field’s executive chef. “We took mortadella, hamcola, and prosciutto cotto — grilled it, diced it, and tossed it with a little bit of shredded provolone and tomato relish stuffed inside an empanada and fried. Then served with a roasted long hot aioli.”
Apart from the Brazilian flavors, Eagles stadium menus will see the addition of Hawaiian-Aussie meat pies, which were made possible with the help of Poi Dog owner Kiki Aranita, Niki Mailata, and Mailata’s husband, Eagles left tackle Jordan Mailata. Also new on offer is a kielbasa special and “The Vincent,” a chicken cutlet, fried pepperoni, and vodka sauce sandwich.
Here are all the new Philly bites and libations at Lincoln Financial Field for the 2024-2025 Eagles season.
