A note from our Executive Chef, Jack Seamon:

Here at The Woodlands of Ocean Pines, we offer a unique combination of nutrition, flavor, and home-style cooking.

We take the nutrition of our residents very seriously in our kitchen—combining a low sodium, low trans-fat diet with a mix of herbs and spices that truly inspire the taste buds bringing out the natural flavors and qualities in everything we prepare.

We pride ourselves on providing diversity in our dishes. We offer three meals a day, and each week our menu is changed. For breakfast we offer eggs (in many different varieties), waffles, and pancakes, plus other specialty breakfasts such as eggs Benedict, frittatas, etc. For lunch, we also strive to offer a large variety of options. Every day we offer a choice of a grilled cheese sandwich, a deli sandwich, or a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with a cup of soup, OR  you can choose the “Daily Special.” For dinner, we like to offer two choices.  One choice is a meat or poultry offering while the other is usually a seafood choice. And, of course, we offer the finest dessert options with every dinner.

The residents are incredibly pleased and look forward to their meals each day. The dining room area has become not just a place to eat, but a social environment.  The residents look forward to sharing stories with each other and with the staff.

As the kitchen manager, I personally approach each resident in the dining room to hear their suggestions, their compliments and/or concerns, and to share a laugh or a short story.

In the 40 years that I have worked in the restaurant/food industry, the residents of The Woodlands of Ocean Pines have made this truly the most fulfilling “job” I have ever had. We as a kitchen staff strive, every day, to make the dining experience the best part of our residents’ days.
