Our Dietary Director has over 20 years experience in the culinary arts and it shows. Every meal is carefully prepared using fresh ingredients and are loaded with flavor. It is true what they say that people "eat with their eyes" first and our dietary department does an excellent job of plating the food - presentation is important. We serve three meals a day in a restaurant style dinning room. Our residents come in and sit wherever they want and our professional dining staff takes their drink and food orders. At each of our three meals there is a "feature" meal and if the resident decides they do not want it they can order off of the "any-time" menu. Some typical breakfast foods include French toast, biscuits and gravy, pancakes, eggs your way, sausage and bacon. Lunch examples include crab cakes with hollandaise sauce, maple glazed sweet potatoes and creamed peas. A supper example is BBQ rib patty sandwich, sweet potato fries and brown sugar baked beans.
