Kiddos Catering in Chicago adopts a method of providing restaurant meals to schools that contract with it. Owner Michelle Moses and her staff work with area restaurants to create a variety of kidfriendly choices and deliver the meals to the schools five days a week. Parents select the lunches from an online order form that lists the day39。s featured restaurant and its menu choices. Each day is a different restaurant with six to 10 menu options, she said. It offers so much choice to kids. The service appeals to parents because they think their children are less likely to toss out restaurant food than a packed lunch, Ms. Moses said. The schools appreciate that Moses handles the ordering, payment, pickup, and food distribution in the cafeteria. Schools really want to be in the business of educating kids, she said. They don39。t want to be in the food and beverage(餐飲) business. That doesn39。t mean that schools always like it when teens (or parents) take it upon themselves to order food through phone apps. Many schools have banned that practice, citing safety concerns about delivery drivers showing up at school unannounced and the burden of tracking down students to alarm them that their meals have arrived. These types of deliveries pose an unnecessary security risk for students and staff, said Bernard Watson, director of munity relations for Gwinnett County Public Schools in Suwanee, Ga. In addition, our awardwinning school nutrition program provides students with a wide variety of tasty, nutritious meals onsite, so there is no need to order food from outside. Jacob Levin, a recent graduate of Bexley High School in Bexley, Ohio, relied on a sub shop to deliver a sandwich to him during lunchtime meetings or other appointments that conflicted with his lunch period. It was a convenient option. In most cases, I would not have been able to eat at school if it weren39。t for the delivery option, he said. Having a restaurantquality sub also was much more enjoyable than cafeteria food.(1)What can we learn about Kiddos Catering?
