Food
A tasty, nutritious and Kosher meal for every breakfast, lunch and supper.
Vi & John Rubens House is supervised by the Sephardi Kashrut Authority, using fully kosher certified food products and suppliers.
We place traditional Jewish values at the heart of all we do at Jewish Care and that’s why we ensure that every breakfast, lunch and supper served in our care homes is tasty, nutritional and Kosher.
Our team of skilled chefs plan and prepare a varied menu each week and meet regularly with residents and their relatives to ensure that every palette is catered for.
Traditional foods that help our residents remember and mark key moments in the Jewish calendar are part of everyday life at all of our homes. Challah on Shabbat, doughnuts for Chanukah, honey cake for Rosh Hashanah and hamantaschen for Purim are all part of what makes Jewish life so important in our homes.
