It’s served one day only in summer, but it’s a meal to remember: fresh lobster, drawn butter, corn on the cob, coleslaw, and a roll. 🦞 🌽 Inspired by summers enjoying seafood in San Pedro or Long Beach, Genesis Robinson, Administrative Director of Food and Nutrition Services wanted to bring a similar summer experience to our hospitals. With support from Norm Lantz MBA, CHFM, FACHE, she and the Food and Nutrition services team tackled logistical challenges, perfecting the process to serve 700+ meals for our faculty and visitors who purchased a voucher. More food fests are planned in the future around seasonal offerings – share what you’d like to see next!
