The University of Kentucky Hospital is trying to top area restaurants with Chandler Dining, a new food-court-like dining facility and kitchen that also serves patients, according to an article on the Lexington Herald-Leader website.
The $18 million renovation includes the 8,700-square-foot kitchen and a similar-sized dining and “cafeteria” space.
The kitchen and dining operation, which officially opened last week, serves patients as well as staff, visitors and the public.
“We’re trying to get away from ‘cafeteria’ to ‘dining’ or ‘restaurant,’ ” said Terri Schnurr, enterprise director for food and nutrition services. “We have chefs from the CIA (Culinary Institute of America), from Johnson & Wales (a top school for culinary arts) ... and they are highly skilled.”
