During a pre-op visit to Rush, I found the cafeteria offerings I tried delicious and was hopeful for solid sustenance during recovery from a spine procedure. Cream of mushroom soup tasted housemade, Meditteranean salad greens frsh and crisp, Kalamata olives salty, fresh and toothsome and the marinated, grilled chicken on top was freshly grilled and still warm, though not so hot as to wilt the greens.
Sadly, post- op in the nice, new Tower room I was assigned, the daily fare was generally inedible, save for the fresh fruit. I needed to shed a few pounds anyway and subsisted mainly on the fruit and Italian ice they freely provided. I headed home eight pounds lighter after a three-day stay - and I am good with that!
