Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport plan to celebrate the opening of showcase restaurant Ecco, marking the completion of restaurants for the international terminal and its Concourse F some nine months after the terminal opened.

Ecco opened its doors Feb. 11, while the $1.4 billion international terminal began operations last May. The European-themed restaurant is an airport outpost of the Midtown Atlanta restaurant. The airport and concessionaire HMSHost plans to hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony next Thursday for the restaurant.

The concessions for the international terminal were delayed amid legal challenges to the airport concessions contracts last year.
