All of the meals are designed by dietitians and physicians to maximize recovery for patients at the hospital.
Since 2016, kitchen and hospital staff have been trained in "meal attitude," a hospitality training by the Paul Bocuse Institute that focuses on making quality food and creating a pleasurable and relaxing experience during mealtime.
We visited their kitchen to see how they prepare these meals in such big batches.

One of the few restaurants making people's last meals. Whether they know it or not. Hospital catering is critical. Bravo !
-
I was in an unfortunate situation a couple of years ago & ended up in a public hospital in Brisbane for 3 nights. I was AMAZED by the food, especially, again for a public hospital! Turns out they were trialling a new 'room service' where you could basically order whatever you want from an extensive menu on an app, at anytime (within dietary restrictions of course) between 7am-7pm. I was almost sad to leave lol
-
Unbelievable, my mouth was watering over hospital food! I wouldn't be surprised if the extra cost of providing good food actually pays for itself, where it gives patients both strength and also positivity, helping to engage in the healing process, and get better quicker
-
One of the rare cases where the hospital's food is actually good
-
Wow, I wish every hospital cares about the patient's meal like them
-
Remind me to get hospitalized in France. Better food and cheaper care than the US…
-
Food matters and the ones working at that hospital seem to know that! Bravo!
-
I love this series and Claudia's narration! Even hospital food in France is better than most restaurant food elsewhere 🤣
-
i love these large kitchen/cruise ship/airline/military kitchen vids
-
Meanwhile in Hungary: slice of bread + small pack of honey. 😎
-
Americans: Food is money. Brits: Food is fuel. French: Food is life! Life without food is death.

The hospitals in my area serve the same gross meal to everyone, regardless of dietary restrictions. So do the nursing homes, btw. Staff comes in with sour expressions, slams it on the little table, not a word said, then off they go. I have to admit there was one nice person from the kitchen once, so unusual I still remember it. This says reams about kitchen management.

heartwarming vid. Wish more hospitals realized that , that having a decent meal is also part of the healing experience....
-
Of course this would be in Lyon France. That’s the culinary capital of France 😂. Even in the hospital the food is excellent
-
good concepts....great food, well done =)
-
The food looks so good. I hope one day I will wake up in a French Hospital.
-
