Cooking kitchen: A kitchen facility where all raw ingredients will be processed for preparation of meal to serve the on-site school population only.
Regional Kitchen: A kitchen facility where all raw ingredients will be processed for school meals, and cooked ingredients will be distributed to Warming and Production facilities from this location. If this kitchen is at a school site it will also serve the on-site school population.
