    I consider myself fortunate: everyone knows hospital food sucks, so I never get any crap about it. They just bring in their own from home.
    They say that God only gives us what we can handle. Apparently, God thinks I'm a bad ass.

      You woulda loved my dad ^_^ He absolutely adored hospital food. I never understood why.

        Every hotel I've ever stayed at had doughnuts, bagels, mini boxes of cereal, fruit (apples or bananas, maybe oranges), coffee, tea and juice--that was the continental breakfast. No meat items at all, no eggs, certainly nothing vegan, vegetarian or organic. If you wanted something bigger and better, you had to go buy breakfast somewhere (hotel restaurant or outside).

        That woman just lives to complain, doesn't she? She makes it sound like the breakfast was the whole point of staying at the hotel. Too bad she didn't do some research before booking a room. She could have stayed somewhere else and saved YOU a lot of aggravation.
        When you start at zero, everything's progress.

          Not just organic, but fair trade, ethically grown, imported fruit that must be served by a vegan virgin.
          Lawd, don't give her any more ideas!!

          Her dietary "requirements" sound completely self-imposed, as opposed to people with genuine dietary issues. This doesn't make them less important FOR HER, but she obviously needs somebody to give her a -- the earth is not the centre of the universe and neither are her breakfast demands.

            Yale-New Haven Hospital has amazingly good food. I had fried chicken that was better than any except what my husband makes. They also have real mashed potatoes, not the instant crap, and you can get a snack of humus, carrots and celery[my absolute favorite snack ever] I have paid to eat worse foods at a restaurant.

              Many people forget that a hotel is NOT, I repeat NOT a restaurant! Sure some do have restaurants in the hotel but it's a separate business in that case. I don't recommend ever working in a hotel w/a restaurant, I did and people would complain to me about the food! Like, really seriously complain. Sure glad I got out of there or I wouldv'e became nuts! I sure feel sorry for anyone that has to...

                  Sweedish Covenant on Chicago's north side serves a real good split-pea soup. I can't comment on the other fare as I was put on a liquid diet at that time.

                    The hospital I used to work at (Good Samaritan in Phoenix) had a surprisingly good cafeteria. Even the restaurant reviewer of the New Times gave it a good review!

                      I have had yummy free breakfasts at all of two hotels, one was the Hampton Inn and Suites in Newport News (they had real sausage gravy!) and the other was the Homewood Suites in Leesburg (which had a nice selection of fruit, a waffle station, and scrambled eggs that they made in small batches and brought out every 10-15 minutes, it was actually one of the best breakfast buffets that I've had), neither of which are cheap.
