Our Food

Our Executive Chef and Catering Team undertake full on site catering of which we are very proud and has been very well received by the Residents.

The smell of home cooked meals from the kitchen fills our hallways and residents are provided a choice from the menu daily.

GraniteHill Aged Care has recently changed to buffet lunch service, aligning with the updated Aged Care Quality Standards, to empower residents with the freedom to make informed choices about their meals and dining experience.

Under this new approach, residents who are using the buffet service, select their preferred protein from the menu order a day in advance.  On the actual day, they choose from a variety of sides dishes, and importantly, determine the portion size of their meal.

Our team work closely with the Dieticians and other specialists in the development of our seasonal menus which are approved by the GraniteHill Resident Menu Committee.
