In Collaboration with Jane Devonshire, MasterChef 2016 Winner

Since winning MasterChef in 2016, Jane has taken the bull by the food horns and tested herself further by working with a number of amazing chefs including Marcus Wareing, Atul Kochhar, Jason Atherton, Michel Roux and Michael O’Hare at their restaurants.

Jane has presented at numerous food and drink shows around the UK, including the BBC Good Food Show. Her travels have taken her from Edinburgh to Brighton, in the course of which she has developed a love for presenting her recipes and chatting to people about food.

Signature is delighted to be working with Jane to develop our dining experience and to ensure that we are at the cutting edge of nutrition, taste and quality.

Dining Options

Across all Signature homes, we offer choice and variety so that residents fully enjoy their dining experience. Whether you prefer a formal or informal environment, you can choose from a range of options including the formal restaurant areas that offer silver service, informal bistros for a more casual dining experience and café areas near the main entrances for coffee, light bites and snacks. Each home has a private dining room so that residents can enjoy special occasions with family and friends. We even offer alfresco dining on our pretty sun terraces for those long lazy summer days.

At Signature, we take great care to ensure that our food is prepared using the highest quality ingredients to ensure a well-balanced and nutritious diet for all of our residents. Our food is made by professionally trained chefs and the delicious menus are inspired by Jane Devonshire, MasterChef 2016 winner.

 

We take pride in producing healthy, appetising food that provides good nutrition and hydration essential to wellness and the physical and mental well-being of our residents. All our meals are freshly prepared, packed full of flavour and include all the seasonal favourites. In addition to our dining times, residents can enjoy a range of lighter meals and snacks throughout the day. We have well-stocked cafés serving speciality teas, freshly ground coffee, flavoured water, fruit juices, homemade cakes and light snacks.

Our café areas provide the perfect environment for family visits as well as socialising with other residents and guests. We make sure that we cater to individual dietary needs and recognise personal preferences and we do all we can to ensure that our residents enjoy their dining experience with Signature. Our homes are fully licensed and stock a great selection of wines, beers and spirits for residents, their guests and visitors to enjoy.

Private Dining & Special Occasions

Many Signature homes offer a stylish private dining facility for residents to enjoy with their loved ones. Celebrating happy times, such as birthdays or anniversaries, is a lovely way to enjoy the facilities. By request, a special menu can be designed by our head chefs and all of our homes are fully licensed offering a great wine list to add to the occasion.

Texture Modified Food

We take our residents’ food requirements very seriously and spend a great deal of time gaining better knowledge of their likes and dislikes as well as their dietary requirements. These often cover many complex needs, including providing texture modified food for residents with Dysphagia. Signature is committed to offering a varied, balanced and attractive menu for residents who suffer from this condition, and we believe that we can offer a dining experience that is inspiring aesthetically, nutritionally and in terms of flavour.

In most care homes, presentation of pureed meals has typically been in the format of pre-prepared meals with little visual stimulation. At Signature, however, we create all of our purees from fresh food, and present pureed meals attractively, with the elements of the food as close visually to their original form as possible.

At Signature, we work closely with our residents, their families and our care teams to provide a daily menu for those residents suffering with dysphagia. A typical day’s menu could include toast with jam, sausage, beans and hash browns and roast chicken and vegetables. Afternoon snacks and biscuits are also entirely achievable with the right training.

Signature hosts regular nutritional workshops where chefs can learn and practise new methods. Our chefs have become very accomplished, with many seeing pureed food as a different art form rather than just a medical need. Many of our chefs have even been inspired to enter national competitions and recognised events to highlight dysphagia-friendly food. Watch our video to find out more.

Special Diets

Our chefs offer fresh, seasonal menus that change daily for lunch and dinner. Each menu lists all allergies and we cater for all dietary requirements. Whether it be vegetarian, pescatarian or even vegan, at Signature we go above and beyond to make sure our residents’ tastes and needs are met, and they are well looked after. When a new resident joins a Signature home, we make every effort to learn what the resident likes and do all that we can to meet their tastes and preferences.
