    A Friendly Cafeteria For All
    Columbia Mercy Medical Center - Canton, OH.
    Creating a non-institutional setting was the goal of TriMark SS Kemp when designers took on the task of renovating the cafeteria at Columbia Mercy Medical center, Canton, OH. They succeeded in their goal, receiving full honors in the Foodservice Equipment &l; Supplies Specialist / Restaurants & Institutions Food Facilities Design Awards Competition.
    Nowadays, that objective is very popular and achieving it can be quite difficult- especially when a non-institutional setting must be created in a basement. Not only did the overall boundaries of the space need to remain, but the existing utilities had to serve the new layout as much as possible. Other important guidelines included keeping the same staff level, improving traffic flow and maintaining the establishment's 260-person seating capacity.
    The job was done in two phases, the servery being the first item and the dining are the second item. A scattered layout helped the designers achieve all their objectives. Each service station was designed to be user-friendly for both the patrons and the staff. Long half pans highlight certain items and sloping slim lind cold pans enhance product presentation. Built-in pass-throughs and rear-loading coolers help save on labor. The designers rid the cafeteria of the stainless steel that is typical of institutional settings and replaced it with brass piping. Wood tones and hunter green were used to add warmth to the dining room.
    The result is a cafeteria that has a warmer, more appealing atmosphere for the patrons it serves, as well as one that was designed to make employee's jobs more manageable.
