Winning recipes of the best chef

A lot of children have a simple equation in their heads: wholegrain = healthy = not so tasty. And while a bit of extra fibre is never a bad thing, wholegrain dishes can be seriously delicious too. That’s why this November, our Gastro Calendar is serving up a school dinner classic – with a wholegrain twist.

In the third week of the month, the menu features roast pork with wholegrain barley risotto, mixed with carrots and peas and served with roasted pumpkin. Pork with generic brown sauce and rice? That’s yesterday’s news.

Autumn doesn’t have to mean bleak weather and gloom. The unmistakable scent of fallen leaves and the slowing rhythm of nature make this season a quietly beautiful time of year. In October, our Gastro Calendar brings children a taste of autumn as we know it from Czech fields and forests. 

In the third week of the month, the menu features juicy chicken breast with a fragrant mushroom sauce, roasted root vegetables and soft, boiled spätzle. A plateful of October’s harvest that fills the dining hall with the scent of autumn. 

Frantic days, new timetables, constant checking to make sure everything’s packed. The start of September can be a challenging time for both children and parents. That’s why, in the third week of the month, our Gastro Calendar is all about slowing things down with food that brings comfort. 

On the menu, you’ll find juicy pork tenderloin with a rich meat jus, caramelised carrots, and roasted potatoes – a hearty dish that’s full of warmth, autumn aroma, and the perfect balance of sweet and savoury.
