HMSHost Corporation, one of the world's largest food,
beverage and retail concessionaires to the travel industry, announced
today the addition of a Phillips Famous Seafood Express to the
Maryland House Travel Plaza. Debuting Memorial Day 2006, it's the
first quick casual version of Phillips on any motorway in the U.S.
This innovative offering follows the successful collaboration between
two Maryland companies, through which HMSHost now operates highly
successful full-service Phillips restaurants at BWI Marshall,
Charlotte-Douglas, and Savannah Airports.
Phillips Seafood had its beginnings on Maryland's Chesapeake Bay in 1916 and is dedicated to preserving Maryland's seafood heritage. Known for its award winning crab cakes, beautifully prepared fish and a simple down-to-earth dedication to quality and hospitality, Phillips has served millions of families, travelers, vacationers and seafood lovers around the world.
"Maryland House is a favorite stop for many of our travelers and the addition of a high quality Maryland tradition like Phillips Seafood will create a great experience for our customers," said Elie Maalouf, President and CEO of HMSHost.
Turnpike travelers stopping at the Maryland House will soon have the convenience of a quick service Phillips Famous Seafood Express along with Travel Mart, a full-service convenience store, and other top restaurant brands, including Starbucks(R) coffee, Sbarro, and Cinnabon.
A few miles north at the Chesapeake House, a Quiznos Sub is under construction. One of America's fastest growing upscale sandwich chains, Quiznos Sub will join the current lineup of brands at Chesapeake House, including Starbucks(R) coffee, Burger King, Popeye's, Sbarro, Freshens Frozen Treats, and Z-Market.
