Award-Winning Dining Experience at Farmington Station Senior Living
Tour guests often ask if residents like our food. Our answer is a resounding yes! Our delicious and nutritious food satisfies the palette and boosts the overall body and brain health of our residents in a relaxed and social fine dining atmosphere.
Our Executive Chef Claribel (who was recently recognized at CALA’s statewide Chef Challenge) designs her own menu every day, tailored to the tastes of Farmington Station’s residents, constantly seeking feedback and suggestions for new dishes! We incorporate elements of the Mediterranean diet, which has been extensively researched and connected to a host of health benefits including slowed cognitive decline, reduced risk of certain cancers, regulated blood sugar and so much more. Check out the latest research here!
The main “brain healthy” foods, proven by research to have beneficial effects, include fresh fruits and vegetables, especially leafy green vegetables, specific spices, whole grains, and foods containing omega-three fatty acids, so we do what we can to incorporate these into most meals offered at our community.
Introducing Grain Bowls and More at the Farmington Station Café!
Our upstairs dining corner now features customizable, nutrient-packed Brain Healthy lunches. Residents can build their own bowls, wraps, paninis and salads, choosing from a protein selection of seafood, fish and ground turkey, paired with a base of farro, barley, quinoa, and more. The options are endless with these superfood-forward meals! Each meal contains incredible health benefits, from heart & digestive health, immune support, increased energy, and cognitive health.
Residents can check out the Café on Monday – Friday from 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM!
