MCC selects new food vendor

The five month process of finding a vendor to continue food service to MCC finally came to an end at the July 14, 2011 Board meeting. The Board approved Elite Cuisine, LLC to provide food service operations at each campus. The agreement began on July 1, and will continue through June 30, 2014 with the option to renew for two additional one-year periods.


The search for a vendor began as Treat America’s contract was coming to a close. On Feb. 25 a request for proposals was sent out with a deadline of April 28. Four companies responded. Selection committees invited the companies to present and were then interviewed by the committee.

As of now, contacts for each campus are as follows:
Blue River – Jon Burke
BTC – Karen Moore
Longview – Marvin Aaron
Maple Woods – Brian Bechtel
Penn Valley – Gurbhushan Singh

Just like at its restaurant, food is served fresh and made to order. Breakfast and coffee are served all day. Sandwiches are served on fresh bread that can be toasted. Subway also offers pizza and soup.

Check out the menu for the mouth watering assortment of foods.

Where fun and speed meet at MCC-Blue River's Food Services


Michael Watkins’ heart is just about as big as his warm, inviting smile.

With over twenty-two years experience in food services, Watkins brings an approachable charm and commitment to the MCC-Blue River community! An employee of Treat America Food Services, he has been on-campus since late July preparing, planning and getting everything in order for today’s crowd of hungry students and faculty.

In his new role at Blue River, Watkins looks forward to cultivating an enjoyable, yet efficient food services atmosphere for his team of five student workers and one regular staffer, Rocky Bond.

Watkins most enjoys the one-on-one time with customers and likes to operate on an informal “first name” basis. What can you expect from his team? Simply put: a fast, fun, friendly food services environment. “If you don’t make work fun, it becomes a four letter word”, Watkins says with a chuckle. “The four letter word is W-O-R-K”.

Watkins lives in Eastern Jackson County with his wife, Teresa, and their five children.



Favorite TV show: Chef Ramsey’s “Hell’s Kitchen”

The one superpower he would love to have: “The power to heal. You know, I guess I (and we) already have it. You can make someone feel better in five minutes with a kind word."

Favorite afternoon snack: Skittles.

What really “bugs” him: When people disrespect others. “Everyone wants respect, but everyone doesn’t give it”
