Ontario hospital patients experience table-side service from a chef

Chef visit was scheduled to encourage patients to eat together

Chef Mitch Stanton came up to their unit in his chef whites and cooked bacon, sausage and eggs, any style they wanted, in front of them.

March was national nutrition month and one of the messages being promoted this year is the ability of food to bring families and friends together.
