Premium European Ingredients » Preparing For Excellence
Robert Volpi directs a full-service dining operation—including a bakeshop and gelateria—serving the entire campus community of Williams College in northwest Massachusetts. “Dining with Pride” is a shared value throughout the department, with 100 employees dedicated to preparing and serving healthy, nutritious, and flavorful meals.
“At Williams, we strive to be the nation’s finest, not only in education but also dining services,” Volpi says. A key to this excellence, he adds, is the use of high-quality ingredients from Swiss Chalet Fine Foods, including bases from Haco, all-natural fruit products from Hero, premium chocolate from Felchlin, and the Pernigotti gelato base.
When Haco introduced their gluten-free line, Volpi switched immediately and exclusively. “We have a computerized menu planner production system, and the ingredient specified is Haco’s Cuisine Santé,” he says. “The base is delicious as well as safe and healthy.”
For Volpi, it’s not just about flavor, but also economics and even teamwork. The Swiss Chalet products allow Volpi and his staff to easily and consistently create delicious menu items while maintaining a low cost per meal. “The Swiss Chalet team has been a great partner for us. They know exactly what we’re all about,” Volpi says. –JT
