Bringing Flavours of Home To Patients. As we celebrate our 180th Founder's Day this month, we kicked off this milestone celebration with our first-ever staff culinary competition - Generations of Flavours: Nourish to Flourish. Staff competed to have their dish featured as a signature on the patient menu. Out of over 30 recipes received, 5 outstanding ones made it to the final cook-off. These dishes, inspired by family food heritage, aim to bring hearty and healthy dishes to our patients. Mentored by our chefs and dietitians, participants created nutritious and appetising meals, ensuring patients can eat well and recover better. This innovative one-dish meal is different from our typical patient menu, which usually includes separate servings of vegetables, protein and carbohydrates. A big congrats to Senior Cook Tan Kah Thai, who won first place with his "Ah Ma's Rice." This dish is a comforting spin on his mom's glutinous rice dumpling recipe, impressing the judges with its flavour and simplicity. Kah Thai wanted to share the flavours of home with elderly patients who can't eat rice dumplings yet missing this festive food. We can't wait for the winning dish to be included in our patient menu!
