Lunch Program

At Quest Food Management Services, we have been providing fresh, high-quality food and intensely personal service for over 30 years. Our Food Philosophy guides our approach to wholesome, scratch-made food, and our culinary leaders deliver tailored dining experiences to the unique needs of each community we serve. Driven by our unparalleled responsiveness to feedback, we crave being challenged to think outside of the box. These values have made us one of the fastest growing companies in our industry.  With a full spectrum of innovative, inspiring experiences to offer, we are a trusted partner to some of the Midwest’s most notable institutions and organizations.

ADDING FUNDS/MEAL ORDERS

We are happy to offer a preordering system via MyMealOrder! Parents (along with their students) can choose their meals a month at a time and pay for it when you order.  It takes just a few minutes to make an online payment using Discover, VISA, or MasterCard (credit/debit). Visit www.mymealorder.com to learn more about our preordering system and to view the menu. All orders must be placed at least 3 days in advance.  If your child forgets their lunch or wishes to get a lunch, they will receive a cold lunch and we will notify you and charge your account.

Quest is committed to offering a variety of healthful options. All of our meals feature lean proteins, whole grains, healthy fats, and a wide variety of fruits and vegetables.

We utilize programs that help us source from farmers and artisans within 250 miles of your school. These programs provide access to the highest-quality produce and specialty foods that we get to offer in our dining hall.

OUR FOOD PHILOSOPHY

We are passionate about food and we believe in wholesome, nutritious ingredients. That is why we are committed to using items healthier for both our bodies and the planet. By purchasing with the following standards in mind and preparing items so that they are as fresh as possible when served, we support local agriculture, increase nutrition, and intensify flavor.

OUR MISSION AND VALUES

Quest provides the communities we serve with fresh, high-quality food, exceptional responsiveness and intensely personal service. We are committed to creating the most enduring relationships in the industry by what we do and how we do it. We operate through the prioritization of our values: Integrity, Responsiveness, Accountability, Respect and Excellence.

QUEST ALLERGEN DISCLAIMER

Due to the handcrafted nature of our menu items, our kitchens which share cooking and preparation areas, and our reliance on suppliers for accurate information, we cannot eliminate the risk of cross-contact or guarantee that any item is free of any allergen. There is a possibility that suppliers of the commercial foods we use can change the formulation or substitute ingredients at any time, without notice. To that end, we make every attempt to identify ingredients and menu items that contain the 8 major allergens (milk, eggs, soybeans, fish, crustacean shellfish, wheat, peanuts, tree nuts). The allergen information provided is up-to-date to the best of our knowledge and is based entirely on the information provided by our suppliers. We also make every effort to instruct our food production staff on the severity of food allergies.

Our schools consult individually with customers whom have food allergies to minimize allergic reactions. Prior to consuming menu items, individuals with life-threatening food allergies should confirm the ingredient information on the actual label of the product. If a customer decides that the menu item is safe on any given day, that decision is entirely their responsibility. Schools will not assume any liability for adverse reactions to foods consumed, or items one may come in contact with while eating on campus . No allergen information should ever be considered a guarantee, but simply a best faith effort to serve our customers. Customers with food allergies are encouraged to contact Food Service Manager, Holly Kraus at holly@questfms.com or 847/509-2408 for additional information and/or support.

Throughout the school year, lunch orders may be logged through mymealorder.com up to 3 days in advance of the desired date of service. Please review the resources below for links to menus, order instructions, and information about Quest. Prior to placing an order, parents must first set up an account with Quest using the unique Student Identification Number that is assigned to each student at the start of the school year. Please contact office@sfx-school.org if you don’t know your student’s unique hot lunch ID#.
