Food Services

The Food Services Department at the IOOF provides three nutritious, home style-cooked meals daily to the residents. There are four dining rooms, with the Main Dining Room service the residents of Allandale Village, Simcoe Lodge and the Elston Unit. The remaining three dining rooms are specifically for the residents of Kempenfelt Court, Baldwin Lane and Georgian Way.

The Registered Dietitian, Director of Food Services, Food Service Coordinator and qualified production team ensure that wholesome, delicious meals are planned and prepared. State-of-the-art equipment, procedures, and quality ingredients ensure tasteful and nutritious food presentations.

Residents are offered a varied menu, knowing that each person has diversified tastes and food favorites. Residents are provided the option to choose between two meal choices. If the main entrée of the meal is not appealing, there will always be an alternate offered to choose from.

A daily and weekly menu is posted on the Menu Board located outside each of the dining rooms. 

Therapeutic Diets:

The Registered Dietitian will visit all new residents to explain food choices and options at mealtimes. Special diets and dietary preferences should be discussed with the Dietitian at that time. Should Family members wish, they may assist with feeding as volunteer assistance is valuable, especially during meals.

Guest Meals:

Family members and friends are welcome to join residents for a meal. To arrange for a guest meal, contact the main kitchen at 728-2389 Ext. 340. Meal tickets can be purchased at the Administration Office (Monday to Friday, 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.). Please make reservations two hours before mealtimes.
