School lunch seems simple enough. However, the preparation of thousands of nutritionally balanced lunch boxes according to the menu ordered and their well-timed delivery to each school for the students to consume before the start of the afternoon lessons involves an elaborate process that has to be executed without a hitch.
Both the parents and the schools aim at providing nutritious meals for the students.
This episode looks at how one school with a central kitchen system prepares rice and vegetables on the premises to ensure their freshness while taking delivery of the main dishes from a school lunch supplier. It also follows a housewife as she prepares lunch boxes with freshly bought ingredients from the market, and delivers them to her children at school. Everyone has to make the best of the time available to prepare the lunch. But even when the food is ready, tables and chairs have to be laid out for over a hundred students who have to come down from their classrooms to have lunch and then return to their afternoon lessons in the space of 45 minutes. To co-ordinate a school lunch is no simple feat.
