+ Google HQ, Toronto
|
A significant renovation of the top 7 floors of the Richmond Adelaide Centre located in downtown Toronto was undertaken for this new Google Toronto headquarters. The foodservice mandate was to provide a visually exciting, diner friendly, self-service style cafeteria for daily meals, which included an efficient catering support service for informal functions. A display cooking island along with several self-service counters was designed in order to provide employees with healthy and nutritious food set in an appropriate ambiance. This is a truly unique food service operation, in both style and performance, where all cafeteria fare is free of charge to all the Google employees. |
|
+ Honda, Ohio
|
Honda USA recently underwent a renovation and expansion of their South cafeteria at their engine plant in Ohio and their East cafeteria in their assembly plant in Marysville Ohio. The Anna South cafeteria was expanded to a 350 seat cafeteria to accommodate the approximately 750 ”associates” while the Marysville East Café was expanded to accommodate 450 seats to service their present 1100 employees. Both cafeterias and kitchens were revitalized and modernized to offer their employees - ”associates” (as they are known in all Honda operations) a greater variety and choice of nutritious and diverse menu offerings, in a pleasant and relaxing dining atmosphere. |
|
+ St. Joseph's Healthcare
|
The West 5th campus is home to the regional specialized Mental Health Services for Central South. It is an important part of the Mental Health & Addiction Program at St. Joseph’s Healthcare Hamilton. The new foodservices facility provides meal service to 1,000 residents and patients. The kitchen prepares and procures food through a chilled food system especially developed for the variety of demands and requirements of the population being serviced. Remote dining rooms with integrated serveries allows for variety and choices in meal offerings. |
|
+ Bridgepoint Hospital
Bridgepoint Hospital is becoming Canada’s leader in complex care and complex rehabilitation. The new state of the art facility is a national centre of excellence, fostering and advancing the understanding and treatment of complex chronic diseases.
To support patient foodservices, a new full production kitchen was developed for a cook/serve type of operation with central retherm and patient focused meal service for the 435 bed facility. |
|
|
+ Kipling Acres LTC
| Kipling Acres is a Metro Home that is being redeveloped to the new MOH standards. The project consists of a new Long Term Care facility for 192 beds, with associated RHA serveries on each floor. Each RHA servery is intended to accommodate approx. 32 residents, be self-contained with dishwashing and have the ability to hold hot or cold entrees for service to residents in each dining room. Foodservices have been designed to enable a full service operation. |
|
|
+ Ronald McDonald House
| The largest Ronald McDonald House in the world is a unique low-cost place to stay for families with seriously ill children who must travel from out-of-town to Toronto for medical treatment. The Home has 96 bedrooms to accommodate 81 families per night, a common kitchen, playground and spaces for an accredited private school and kids’ programs. It is truly a home of hope in Toronto for families to heal better together. The central kitchen operation enables all residents to prepare, cook and serve food to the individual families. A common dishwashing area and a separate beverage section have been developed for efficient service. |
|
|
+ Four Seasons Opera House
The Four Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts is the new home for both the Canadian Opera Company and the National Ballet of Canada. The centre takes up an entire city block. A premier facility for Toronto with Foodservices specifically designed for a catered meal service to pre-theatre functions and various events and celebrations during the year.
Designed by Toronto architect Jack Diamond, the centre features a translucent glass staircase and suspended bridges for the City Room and the glass-enclosed main lobby with an open view of the city. The horseshoe-shaped R. Fraser Elliot Hall was built with superior acoustics as its first priority. Each of the theatre’s 2000 seats has been computer-tested for optimal sightlines to ensure an unobstructed view for every member of the audience. |
|
|
+ C.F.B. Trenton
The Wing 8 foodservice facility was originally a traditional vintage military style cafeteria operation with typical full production kitchen and servery, and a normal long straight-line service counter.
The mandate was to improve the existing service, by creating a new model that would offer an increased menu selection, minimize waiting time and provide greater flexibility for all patrons of the cafeteria. In addition to the servery renovation the 200 seat-dining hall was also refurbished to provide for a warmer and friendlier dining experience.
This new concept for military dining was developed while maintaining the existing kitchen operation. A market style operation was envisioned to allow for open cooking, greater merchandising and increased selection. This was very unusual and radically different from the military norm; however, it proved to be a very popular and successful new facility. It also showed how foodservice ideas in the private sector can influence operations in a government environment. |
|
|
+ Henley Place LTC
| Henley Place Long Term Care Centre, part of the Primacare Living Solutions group, will be located in London Ontario. The facility is comprised of 192 resident beds, housed in a three storey building with a full service kitchen located on the lower level. Three separate double RHA’s (resident home areas) with serveries and dining rooms per floor provide meal service to residents. Each RHA server accommodates up to 32 residents, is self-contained with dishwashing and service counters and has the ability to hold hot and cold entrees for meal service to the residents in each dining room. |
|
|
+ West Toronto Collegiate
| West Toronto Collegiate a former public secondary school located in West Toronto and formally owned by the Toronto District School Board was sold to the Conseil scolaire district catholique Centre-Sud. The original school was constructed and opened in 1972 and closed down in 2010 due to the decline in student enrollment. The new 1200 student school is unique because it is shared by both the catholic and public French school boards. The existing kitchen and cafeteria have been demolished, expanded and completely renovated, and a new Hospitality teaching kitchen and classroom has been added. |
|
|
+ Craig Kielburger S.S.
| Craig Kielburger Secondary replaced E.C. Drury Secondary School presently located on Ontario Street in Milton Ontario. This new school is named after the young Canadian child rights activist Craig Kielburger. The new 1200 student school is unique in terms that the school will operate the food service facilities. The Culinary Hospitality students, with the help of their instructors, prepare all the food served in the school cafeteria. The school has a large commercial/teaching hospitality kitchen with bakeshop as part of the overall teaching program. |
|
|
+ William Osler Health Centre
| WOHC was one of the first Design Built P3 projects with a purpose built foodservice centre to accommodate a procured foodservice operation. Prepared food is delivered to the newly designed kitchen facility for decasing, portioning, packaging and cold plating to service the area’s 1,000 bed requirement. The meal components are also delivered to two remote facilities.A decentralized retherm system with on-floor serveries, complete with dishwashing and service capabilities enables this operation and allows for a more patient focused approach to meal service. |
|
|
+ Bluewater Health
| Originally the Sarnia hospital was a cook, serve, and chill kitchen operation with central hot plating and limited on- floor serveries. A restructuring project was initiated to redevelop and revitalize the hospital and the foodservices. The existing kitchen was renovated and changed to a procured food operation with cold plating and central retherm. The intricacy of providing a new kitchen environment while maintaining meal provisions was a challenging yet successful process. |
|
|
+ Sault Area Hospital
| This new facility was a purpose built foodservice centre for a procured foodservices operation whereby prepared food was delivered to the kitchen for decasing, holding portioning, packaging and cold assembly to dedicated floor serveries. |
|
|
+ Hamilton Health Sciences Hospitals
| 1200 beds - The scope of work included planning at the General, Henderson and Chedoke sites. Studies and implementation for renovations and Restructuring of Foodservices for these various projects & sites were undertaken in association with Foodsystems Inc. The onsite work encompassed the redevelopment of the central food production at Chedoke as well as the existing cook serve operations at the Henderson and General Hospitals. The existing kitchens were redeveloped into satellite depots for plated meals coming from the main central Chedoke facility. |
|
|
+ Royal Military College - Yeo Hall
| Yeo Hall at RMC is a full service foodservice facility capable of supporting a cadet population of approx. 900. The existing kitchen and servery operation was aged and becoming expensive to maintain. As a result, the existing kitchen and serveries were demolished to make room for a larger more advanced food service operation. The challenge was to develop an efficient kitchen and servery within the confines of the existing envelope. The servery needed to be effective, with some self-service and flexibility of menu offering, as well as be efficient and attractive to the students/cadets. |
