I mean I hear it was...I was too sick to actually eat anything and by the time I was well enough to actually think about possibly ordering something I was going home. I haven't ever had yummy hospital food but I do think its out there, just that every time I have ever been in the hospital I'm either too sick to eat or at the hospital with bad food.Radioactive Torihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01588217525296865718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3202241003290273966.post-20692950968938095142012-02-25T22:26:39.008-08:002012-02-25T22:26:39.008-08:00Mayo does.

Zion hospital in San Francisco (when it was an independent hospital, before it was part of UCSF) did have an executive chef whose food was highly acclaimed. My then-boyfriend (who worked there at the time) used to actually eat dinner there on occasion -- it was very good. Hard to believe, but true. Also, California-Pacific Medical Center used to have very good food -- I worked there (again, this was several years ago) and I looked forward to eating lunch there every work day. Now, I also used to work at -- and was a patient at -- UCSF, and the food was unspeakably BAD. I am wondering if teaching hospitals have the bad food, and maybe the regular hospitals have good food in order to attract patients? In any event, yes, there is some delicious hospital food out there. Somewhere. . .Tina Petrakisnoreply@blogger.com
