When it comes to dining, we provide our residents with good food, great conversation and a welcoming atmosphere. We create delightful dining experiences based on your personal tastes, creating unique, flavorful menus with a variety of options and making nearly everything from scratch. With information gleaned from monthly “Food for Thought” meetings, our residents partake in the creative process by sharing cherished recipes and offering valuable feedback that inspires the development of a unique community menu.
We can accommodate most any dietary requirement or restriction, including special diets to help manage conditions such as hypertension, heart disease or diabetes. All chef-created menus are certified by a registered dietitian to guarantee the nutritional integrity of each dish. We can also provide space for private functions with your friends and family that you can reserve for birthday celebrations, a graduation party for your grandchild or other events.
