Dining

Maintaining a consistent, well-rounded diet is imperative to the health of seniors. At The Residence, we offer fine dining to our senior community and use fresh ingredients to make cuisine that is delicious, yet specially selected to ensure the most beneficial nutrition for our senior community. Additionally, for those residents who require certain specialty diets, our assisted living dining program develops individual menu plans.

At the same time, we also make sure mealtime in our assisted living fine dining room is a very special time with a variety of flavors and themes – a highlight of each day that residents look forward to with great anticipation, and for good reason.

Early Bird Special in Pennsylvania

A favorite at The Residence is our “Early Bird Special” program. The program offers different specialties on a rotating basis, including such delectable treats as savory omelet stations, mouth-watering carving stations, and luscious flavored coffees. In addition, seating options for our senior diners are offered at various times during the year to coincide with holidays representing all denominations.

World Travel Club

There’s also another very popular tradition in our assisted living dining experience called the “World Travel Club.” Glen Riddle develops theme menus that include the very best culinary creations from different parts of the world such as Mexico, China, Italy and Israel. Residents receive special invitations to our World Travel Club, and each invitation is designed to look like a passport.

Family Traditions

Another mealtime favorite is our “Family Traditions” recipe program. Residents are urged to share their own family recipes with our staff. Selected recipes are then posted for everyone to see, and our chef prepares the recipe for all residents to enjoy. A “Family Traditions” cookbook filled with residents’ recipes is then created at the end of the year.
