Southend Hospital launches new menu
12:20pm Tuesday 9th October 2012 in Echo News
A NEW tasty choice of dishes has been launched at Southend Hospital.
Meals like salmon jambalaya, five-bean chilli, suet pud and spinach and ricotta cannelloni have been added to the extensive range of meals which are cooked on the ward for individual patients.
Mick Hailey, manager for hospital caterers Medirest, said: “Every 12 months we remove a couple of the options from our patient menu and bring in some new ones. This time we have introduced some really lip-smacking dishes.”
The patients’ menu offers a choice of 35 main courses as well as a range of sandwiches, starters and hot and cold desserts, each clearly marked so patients on special diets know which would be appropriate for their particular needs
