ACS Catering - Creative Fresh Food

The Catering Department at the ACS Hillingdon International School is operated in-house, meaning that we employ and train our own chefs. We take great pride in providing creative fresh food which is appealing to our multi cultural student base as well as being nutritionally sound. Here at ACS we work firmly to a fresh food policy which ensures that wherever possible fresh ingredients are used, making the most of seasonal produce. To do this, our Head Chef, Mr Charlie Talbot, revises the menus three times each year. Menus run in four week cycles and are advertised in the school magazine ‘Hawk Talk’ as well as the school offices.

All our menus are based on the Government’s ‘Balance of Good Health’ in conjunction with the British Nutrition Foundation.

Students are encouraged to make a nutritionally balanced choice at lunch time. The options include a hot main meal with a vegetarian choice, baked jacket potato with a choice of hot and cold fillings, freshly made sandwiches or bagels, or hot filled panini. Students are also encouraged to take a salad bag (freshly prepared salad leaves with crunchy cucumber strips and sweet cherry tomatoes). Desserts range from fresh fruit; fresh fruit bags i.e. slices of watermelon or apple and grape, yoghurts, cheese and biscuits and the occasional treat of a freshly baked cookie. Chilled milk and water are readily available for all students.

Payment for lunches is made very simple via lunch vouchers. Books of lunch vouchers are available from school secretaries.

We hope you will enjoy your lunchtime experience at ACS Hillingdon!
