Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! This month, our sites are celebrating with Hispanic-inspired dishes that highlight the vibrant flavors and culinary traditions of Hispanic and Latin American cultures.
Wishing a sweet and meaningful Rosh Hashanah to all who celebrate. May the new year bring joy, health, and new beginnings!
In our kitchens, learning is constant and mentorship is part of the culture.
Our culinarians are driven to grow, not just in their own craft, but in how they support the people around them. From sharing techniques to building confidence in real time, they create environments where development happens every day.
That commitment to teaching and learning is what strengthens our teams and shapes the future of our kitchens.
Successful catering events don’t happen by chance, they happen when talented teams collaborate seamlessly, combining expertise, creativity, and attention to detail.
For the last 30 years, our commitment to people-first hospitality has been at the heart of every event ensuring every guest feels valued, every detail is intentional, and every experience is elevated.
By working together across operations, culinary, and service, our teams bring events to life in ways that inspire, delight, and leave a lasting impression.
We couldn`t scroll past this one from @barddining as they celebrate Global Cuisines! 🍽️
Great events don’t just happen; they’re thoughtfully brought to life by our operators. From intimate gatherings to large-scale celebrations, our teams bring creativity, precision, and a deep understanding of hospitality to every detail. It’s how they transform moments into experiences that feel seamless, memorable, and uniquely tailored to each guest and community. When expertise is connected with heart and meets intention, every event becomes something unforgettable.
This summer, we had the chance to get out into the fields and visit some of our FarmSource partners. Seeing our produce growing firsthand and learning more about the people behind it was a great reminder of the impact local partnerships have on our communities and food system.
Through our FarmSource program, we work with local farmers and producers who supply peak-season ingredients directly to our kitchens, helping us serve fresh, high-quality food while advancing our sustainability efforts.
A big thank you to the teams at Pine Valley Farms and Eden Hall Farm for welcoming us and for all they do to help grow a more sustainable future!
Catering is both an art and a science, and our teams are experts in both.
Our Catering Showcases bring together variety, innovation, and thoughtful presentation to make each guest experience unforgettable.
Because when expertise meets creativity and a team connected with heart, every event shines.
Prioritizing student wellness goes beyond what`s on the menu! Our team at @bluestreakdining recently hosted a Wellness Week filled with giveaways, opportunities for connection, brain-boosting meals, and activities that encouraged students to spread kindness through notes of encouragement. It`s initiatives like these that help create meaningful experiences, foster community, and support student well-being both inside and outside the dining hall!
Great food starts with knowing where it comes from and who’s behind it.
For the last 30 years, our culinarians have partnered closely with our Know Your Source network to bring thoughtfully sourced ingredients into every kitchen. From local farms to trusted artisan partners, these collaborations shape menus, spark creativity, and connect our guests more deeply to what’s on their plate. When sourcing is rooted in values, every ingredient has a story and every dish carries it forward.
Our operators don’t just work in their communities – they’re part of them. From the campuses and Corporate locations they serve to the partnerships they build beyond our walls, our teams create meaningful connections that go far beyond the dining room. It’s these relationships that are rooted in values that shape the experience, strengthen communities, and make the work more than just a role.
It’s World Plant Milk Day! 🥛 We`re proud to offer dairy-free alternatives at our dining locations and cafés, making it easier for guests to find options that fit their dietary needs and preferences!
