If your community wants to transform your food and beverage operations, look no further than CulinArt/Compass. You’ll be happy that you did. In 2024, the Heritage Hunt Board of Directors recognized the need to reinvigorate the food and beverage services within our 55+ active living community located in Northern Virginia. Following a competitive bidding process, the Board of Directors selected CulinArt as the new Food and Beverage partner with Heritage Hunt. On July 1, 2024, CulinArt came on board to manage all food and beverage operations. Despite significant challenges in the kitchen, CulinArt accepted these challenges head-on and in stride, hitting the ground running with a fourth of July picnic like none other seen previously at Heritage Hunt.

– Maureen StoryHOA Director, Heritage Hunt Golf and Country Club

I just wanted to say how much I've enjoyed having Chef Zack join us. Every day at lunch people are talking about how good the food has tasted! Having the food labeled with the items above each section has made it really clear what's in each dish, and it's been much easier to check for allergens, so I REALLY do appreciate that! I love that [Zach] has come out to chat with students and adults to find out what we thought about the meal! I thought I'd share the good vibes and kudos with you 🙂

Yesterday was a very special day at the United Nations!

Four visually impaired students from the @lighthouseguild graduated from their summer job experience program ⭐️

The program ran at the UN for a little over 3 weeks and the students gained experience in the front and back of house.

The students were each given their own Certificate of Completion in Braille, and @educationalvisionservices, which partners with The Lighthouse Guild, presented @chef.peter.k with a plaque as a thank you for his partnership with them over the years 👏

The students were so grateful to have this experience and our CulinArt team at the UN felt so lucky to have them there! The ceremony was so beautiful and it brought most of the people in the room to tears 🥹

With the partnership and support of the UN, we hope to have many more programs like this in the future! ...

🌟 Hands to Work at Darrow School 🌟

Every Wednesday during the school year, students rolled up their sleeves for a hands-on intro to foodservice!

Led by Chef Jayson Shaw, they learned safety and sanitation, cleaned the dining hall, and prepped meals. From slicing veggies (with cut gloves) to baking muffins.

One highlight? Helping make Nashville hot chicken. Students breaded the chicken, made house chips, and mixed the seasoning!

This program builds real-world skills, teamwork, and confidence for both students and staff. 👩‍🍳👏
