Our talented Chef and hospitality team craft restaurant-quality menus using the finest seasonal produce, balancing nutrition with flavour and artistry. Meals are prepared fresh on-site, with care and integrity, using
wholesome ingredients and minimal additives.
Our team takes pride in delivering a dignified, person-centred dining experience that reflects our residents’ preferences and celebrates the simple pleasures of good food and company
Our Person-Centred Approach To Dining
At Belvedere Aged Care, we proudly honour the rich heritage and dining customs of our Residents; from the traditional Sunday roast, the aromas of Mediterranean kitchens and the vibrant flavours of more recent cultural communities.
Our menus embrace the preferences of our Residents.
Cultural and Spiritual Awareness
We foster an environment where every resident’s cultural and spiritual traditions are recognised and
respected. Our staff are trained to understand and honour diverse meal customs, preparation methods,
and dietary needs, ensuring each resident feels seen and supported.
Celebrating Menu Diversity
Our menus are carefully designed to feature a wide range of cuisines, ingredients, and flavours that bring comfort and familiarity. Traditional favourites sit alongside contemporary dishes, allowing residents to
connect with their heritage or explore new tastes that reflect Victoria’s evolving cultural landscape.
Language and Connection
We recognise that communication is key to comfort. Multilingual staff and translated menus help ensure every resident can understand their choices and feel empowered to express preferences.
Personalised Dining Plans
Through regular conversations and feedback, our team works closely with residents and their families to
develop dining plans that reflect personal tastes, cultural needs, and family traditions.
Inclusive Celebrations
We celebrate cultural and religious occasions with authenticity and warmth. From Italian feasts and Greek
Easter traditions to Lunar New Year, Diwali and signature Easter and Christmas long family lunches!
We create moments that honour memory, belonging, and joy.
Community Engagement
Residents are invited to share their culinary stories, recipes, and traditions, inspiring our chefs to craft
menus that truly represent the diverse community we serve.
