Catering
Catering: Appetizing and Customized
Serving Meals to Suit Your Taste
Good nutrition is essential for well-being, for productivity and for general health. But it’s often difficult to eat well in the course of the daily routine. Often there’s just too little time, especially at work.
The aim of all of our catering services is to provide people with access to healthy food, wherever they are. We have developed products which are adapted to differing needs and requirements – both in terms of nutrition and of taste.
All of our catering services share a few basic principles. For example we take sustainability seriously and the majority of our products come from regional suppliers. If the client wishes, we are happy to provide organic meals and we can cater to all special dietary needs.
The equipment we use is adapted to the situation of our clients and not the other way round. This applies to production processes, to ordering and service systems as well as to payment systems. We are happy to provide for special and individual requests and develop solutions which go beyond just food preparation.
Our catering specialists would be happy to give you further information.
HACCP concept
Food Hygiene
The HACCP concept is an efficient control system that guarantees strict food hygiene and safety in production processes. It requires consistent documentation and regular HACCP audits are carried out by an independent hygiene institute.
Sustainable Catering
Regional and Seasonal
On request, you can make your catering operations even more sustainable. For example with foods in organic quality or by installing energy-efficient kitchen equipment and converting food waste to energy. Ask us.
1. Catering for Children
Catering for Child-Care Facilities
Capt’nCook
Capt’nCook is a holistic catering concept for child-care facilities. It has been developed with the needs of 2 to 6-year-olds in mind and offers plenty of variety. And it enables children, educators and parents to decide what is served.
A wide choice of foods helps children to develop healthy eating habits and to learn to enjoy eating together. We support parents and educators in teaching children to enjoy food and to develop the associated social skills. We organize events and provide work materials and advice.
Food quality is subject to strict controls. Nutrient density of food is very high i.e. it contains a high proportion of vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates and protein but relatively low levels of fat. We are also careful with sugar. We use only rapeseed and olive oils and avoid hardened fats and preservatives. Food is free of flavor enhancer.
The meal plan includes fruit and vegetables, some raw, every day. Once or twice a week, meat is included and at least once a week, fish is served. Milk dishes are included 2-3 times a week.
Call us for more information and let us take you on a tour of good food for child-care facilities.
High Quality Standards
Our catering concept complies with the quality standards set by German Nutrition Society for catering in child-care facilities as well as the requirements of the federal ministry of agriculture and consumer protection agencie
2. Catering for Students
Catering for Schools
CoolCooking
CoolCooking is a catering concept developed for schools which offers more than great food; the modular structure can be adapted to the individual requirements of each school. It enables students to select what they eat themselves and provides guidance on healthy eating.
This begins on the first day in the school canteen with games. It can also include PointIt, a program which makes nutritional planning simple. We support school events and provide practical information for lessons. We are happy to cooperate with teachers and parents in nutritional education.
We serve the things that students like to eat, and we place emphasis on careful preparation and first class ingredients. We use mostly seasonal products which we purchase from local suppliers. A range of dishes, oriented on tastes of young diners and served creatively is very popular in our school canteens.
To learn how satisfied our diners are with Cool Cooking, we place a postbox in the canteen for feedback. We also carry out regular diners surveys and integrate a competition with prizes.
For more information on catering for schools, just call us or send us an email.
PointIt
Balanced Nutrition
Our PointIt concept makes it simple to eat healthily. It uses a traffic-lights system to help diners determine how much of each type of food to eat each month. The concept is based on DGE (German Nutrition Society) recommendations.

4. Catering for Patients
Catering for Hospitals
Delicatess
Just like restaurant service. This is what Delicatess, our catering concept for hospitals, promises patients. To meet this challenge, we work closely with clients and develop a customized solution, tailor-made to the individual needs of the organization.
We check the limitations and opportunities of available space and listen closely to our clients’ wishes. Delicatess may mean operating the kitchen in your facility and preparing food on site. But we can provide restaurant service without a central kitchen too. This is possible by deploying modern, flexible production systems and applying the professional knowledge of our catering specialists.
We always have the interests of your patients in mind and the food in a hospital can be part of therapy. We work with nutritionists and offer the entire range of special diets.
Delicatess may also include catering for your employees such as a coffee bar or the staff restaurant. Wherever we are responsible for meals, we serve good food. We ensure the quality of ingredients by carefully selecting suppliers, mostly local, and take care in food preparation. Theme weeks increase the variety of the meal plan.
We would be happy to provide more information about catering for hospitals. Simply call us or send us an email.
