Snail of Approval Awardees
I am the chairman of the Snail of Approval for the East End. Recently we gave a SOA to Peconic Bay Medical Center food services in Riverhead for their exemplary food and practices. Yes a hospital. The vice president of Food Services unit of Northwell expressed an interest in being evaluated at other Northwell facilities. If you are interested please contact Bruno Tison btison@northwell.edu.He is very eager and interested applicant. We received much gratitude and publicity for the award. I think Syosset and GlenCove might be in your area. If you want to contact me email at ral_rei@msn.com.
Thank you Ralph I will look into contacting them
