Foodie Alert! The Montera Earns “Best Meals & Dining” Award from A Place For Mom

|

Congratulations to the culinary team at The Montera! Based on food service reviews from residents and families (that average at least 4.5 stars out of 5), the community has earned a “Best Meals & Dining” award from A Place for Mom.

 

The community’s signature dining program, MBK Cuisine, offers nutritionally balanced seasonal menus and a variety of always-available favorites. Menus are often inspired by ideas from residents and include a wide range of heart-healthy and comfort foods. Adding to the dining experience at The Montera, the culinary team offers monthly brunches, action stations, and service that rivals the best restaurants.

 

According to The Montera’s Executive Director, Emily Turner, programs and services that lend to the low-maintenance lifestyle, augment the high-quality care received, and enhance residents’ day-to-day are among the most sought-after in senior living. Dining programs top the list, as meals are more than just being well-fed. Quality dining programs are a conduit to developing friendships, making connections, and personal enjoyment.

 

“There’s no question that nutritious, delicious meals are a valued benefit of senior living,” said Turner. “Residents enjoy sitting down to a good meal and engaging with neighbors and friends.”

 

“We’re very fortunate to have Chef Saul leading The Montera’s dining program and providing our residents with an exceptional dining experience,” added Turner.

 

“We’re thrilled to see The Montera honored as a top-rated dining program,” said Matt Perez, National Director of Dining Services. “Chef Saul has a genuine passion for serving others and generously shares his spirit of hospitality.”

The community is proud to be ranked as a “Best of Assisted Living” and “Best of Memory Care” community by U.S. News & World Report.

Every time that I visited my dad, I enjoyed myself from the moment I walked in the door. The place is just alive! It was always a pleasure to go in and be greeted by name and say hello to everyone, staff and residents.
