Exceptional
food

We believe that our residents deserve to have an extraordinary culinary experience. Our Executive Chef Tristan Welch, previously Head Chef of the two-Michelin-starred Petrus, has meticulously crafted menus that feature exceptional dishes, each imbued with a conscious approach to nutrition. From the choice of ingredients to the cooking techniques employed, every aspect of our cuisine is designed with the wellbeing and satisfaction of our residents in mind. We take pride in serving delectable, healthy meals that our residents and their guests can enjoy together.

At KYN, exceptional food is integral to our philosophy of good living. Tristan collaborates closely with Eva Humphries, a registered practitioner from the British Association for Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine (BANT) to ensure that the latest research in diet and nutrition is incorporated into our menus so that they both taste delicious and form part of a nutritionally balanced diet. Our approach focuses on plenty of fresh, seasonal fruits and vegetables, high-quality protein sources and minimally processed carbohydrates as well as sufficient good fats forming part of dishes wherever possible.

For example, our KYN oil blend, comprises the right balance of Omega 3, 6 & 9 oils which both nourishes our residents as well as providing multiple health benefits when consumed regularly and as part of a balanced diet. Our ‘Nice Cream’ is a healthier take on ice cream and is both dairy free and contains no refined sugar. Favouring nutrients over calories, our menus nourish both body and soul, leaving our residents feeling satisfied, healthy and cared for.

Dining

The menus and service are delivered to five-star hotel standards, whether residents are eating in the privacy of their own room at whatever time they choose or settling down for an intimate lunch or dinner with family and friends in the heart of our home, The Great Room. Our chefs are tasked with getting to know each of our residents personally to understand their tastes, favourite dishes, and dietary requirements. They are on hand to discuss the catch of the day or freshly sourced ingredients – some of which come from our very own gardens. Good conversation over good food is one of life’s principal joys, and we welcome our residents’ friends and family to join them for meals, continuing many years of memories created around a shared table.

Our private dining room is available for exclusive use, with further spaces throughout the home also available for entertaining and celebrating with family and friends. A shared meal at KYN is something that residents, their families, and friends genuinely look forward to.
