Best Food Served At A Nuclear Site

My vote would have to go to both FPL Plants.  The best food service of any plant I've been to.

Talk about a blast from the past...I remember the highly aclaimed $100.00 sandwiches that were served at a plant in South Jersey...had to eat them with a straw...not that I would know from any rumored experience...How about you Rapid...bring back memories?

:)  I thought the food at Palo Verde was excellent.  Not always esay to get depending on which unit you were working.  The view at Pilgrim was great especially when the public provided live entertainment on the rocks below!  Anybody else remember that one?  Security steped in and ended the show.

Prime Rib at Diablo Canyon's 'Canyon Cafe'. Great food at low prices. Excellent dining area, salad bar is great, sandwich line can't be beat, and grill and bakery are superb. Several top name coffee's always freshly brewed. Open 24/7 (except for a mere 30 min. change over at midnight)during outages and they are very friendly toward contractors. Conveniently located in the protected area. If you haven't been there yet ............you need to get on over-- and get ya some.:-)

It's been said an army runs on it's stomach,.....my opinion is: so does an outage. Overall, these courteous people do a tremendous job running the cafeteria at DCPP and rarely does anyone thank them for all their hard work.

I give the "Canyon Cafe" 5 stars ....thumbs up all the way any day.

You mean eating a donut and drinking coffee while dressed out at Maine Yankee doesn't rate an honorable mention? No wait a minute... I think this belongs under the "What's wrong with this picture" heading. I am so confused. Too many $100.00 sandwiches.

Palo Verde has to get my vote.

They don't get mine.  I got food poisoning from the place.  TWICE.  Once from the Kilowatt Cafe Grill and the other time from the Pizza Hut.

Diablo and Trojan both had some decent grub.

Its been years but the Atomic Cafe at Quad Cities was awesome $1.00 for a pancake as big as a plate, if they didn't have it on the menu al ya had to do was ask and they usually made it.  Great food and inexpensive too.

EDF's Chinon Nuclear Power Station in Chinon France, salad, roasted rabbit with garlic and herbs, green beans, rolls, cheese and desert. Followed by espresso and dark chocolate with a hint of orange. Almost forgot, one glass of merlot from a local winery - right at the site cafeteria - for real!

Turkey Point - The Ropa Vieja was deicious.

On the other hand every Thursday is Mom's Meat Loaf.  If my Mom's Meat Loaf tasted like that, I would have left home a lot earlier!
There are the Habs, and the Hab nots.

For commercial nuclear plants, I'd have to go with the cheesesteak wraps at Salem and the food in general at St. Lucie.  But the nachos from D1G cafeteria in the Nav at KAPL site were the bomb back in 89!

Don't even eat at Indian Point's cafeteria, HORRIBLE!

In the early 80's at salem the nuclear vice president named miltenberger liked this near beer drink,so he had it but in the new salem guard house on the left hand side in one whole machine filled with it.
Then somebody figured out that if you drank 6 of these beers it would equal 1 beer so they pulled it after about 9 months on site.It was in the cafe too.They were afraid the control operators would drink 36 to equal a 6 pack.

God I miss the 80's
