As part of our annual business plan this year we have come up with a new way of holding our dining committee meetings. In the past our meeting took place right after the monthly resident council meeting and was not really it's own entity. In order to change that and really make the meetings more productive and memorable for our residents we came up with our own day of the month and a new name. Our monthly "Kitchen Kabinet" meetings now take place on the second Wednesday of the month and are focused mainly on menu selections.
For our first meeting we discussed the implementation of our new Fall/Winter menus and Bruce prepared one of our new dessert items, Sautéed Apple Slices w/Cinnamon and Brown Sugar, for our residents to sample. We anticipate that these meetings will be beneficial in our menu planning and help to increase our resident satisfaction scores.
