‘Sit when you want, with who you want, and dine how you want’

Recently, Saltwire’s Rachael Dyal was invited to experience the flavours of Parkland at one of our restaurant-style dining rooms in Parkland Ajax, in Ont. She shares her experience:

As someone who visited Parkland in downtown, Halifax, I was elated when I was invited to enjoy a meal. I had seen the dining rooms during my previous tour and my mouth was salivating. To be able to dine was an opportunity I was not going to pass up.  

I decided to bring my grandma and mom because they fit the demographic of people who benefit from all that’s offered in a retirement community like Parkland. Plus, it was genuinely nice to have some company.  

As I surveyed the dining area upon being seated, I took note of a few things: staff taking residents’ orders, residents being checked on continuously, and the chef making his way around each table to see how residents enjoyed their meal.  

But I think what captured my attention the most was the beaming smiles from residents enjoying their time.  

It was apparent that Parkland makes resident’s dining experience welcoming and comfortable.
