“We’ve had success with a Vietnamese banh mi with a changing protein option and vegetable korma (a mildly spiced Indian dish with potatoes, carrots, cashews, tomatoes, garlic, peppers, curry and cream). Next up in our senior living venue: a Mexican torta jamon [sandwich]. The smoked ham comes from a breed-specific hog farm and is raised by local Amish here in Pennsylvania.”
