The MESH team of Grossberg and Kent did it again and in record time. On March 1, head chef Aileen Grossberg and sous chef Alex Kent prepared a sumptuous and nutritious takeaway meal for our MESH guests.
Packed into the bag were the following:
pita bread with a small container of hummus
a container of green salad
a large serving of Tilapia Mediterranean style with tomatoes, olives, mushrooms and zucchini
rice
a crescent roll from Collin, our faithful teen baker
two cookies, one fresh baked by Collin
fresh fruit salad
a bottle of water
a snack bar
The aroma of sautéing onions and garlic filled the kitchen as Aileen and Alex efficiently prepared and packaged the meal to go.
A shout out goes to Brookdale Shoprite which – when asked – extended a discount price on the tilapia and even thanked Chef Aileen for working with MESH.
