David Slotnick/Business Insider American Airlines recently announced a new partnership with the James Beard Foundation, which will bring meals designed by James Beard-affiliate chefs to first and business class lounges and flights. It's part of a marketing push by American, which enjoys significantly higher profit margins on premium seats than on coach, especially with business travelers. We recently had a chance to try some of the dishes designed by the first chef: Sarah Grueneberg of Monteverde Restaurant & Pastificio in Chicago.
