The purpose of this study was to classify noodle meals into a few groups according to their menu patterns and cooking methods from the 318 noodles and Ttokgook menus of 360 elementary school foodservices around Busan and Gyeongnam province. Noodle meals with high frequency were also analyzed by season and region to give information for menu planning and to improve elementary school foodservices. The menus were collected from the internet(http://www.kdclub.com) and the home pages of elementary schools between December 2004 and September 2005. Taking all kinds of noodle meals together, the serving frequencies were significantly different among regions, but were not different from season to season. Three different menu patterns were revealed from the collected noodle menus. The most frequently served menu pattern was 'main dish+starchy food & dessert+fruit & beverage+kimchi'. Gooksu, Ttokgook, Udong, and Kalgooksu meals were served with this menu pattern. The menu pattern of Jajangmeon meal was 'main dish+side-dish+starchy food & dessert+fruit & beverage+(kimchi)'. For the Bibimmeon and the spaghetti meals 'main dish+soup+starchy food & dessert+fruit & beverage+kimchi' was used. Ttigim, Danmugy, Saengchae, and chicken were frequently selected as side dishes in the overall noodle menus. More side dishes of a wide variety were served in Ttokgook meal, whereas Danmugy was the most preferred food item as a side dish with Jajangmeon and Udong meals. Comdog, Mandu, Ttok, Matang, and doughnut were preferred food items as a 'starchy food & dessert' with most kinds of noodle meals, except spaghetti with which only garlic-bread was served. The fruit and beverage items were not different with the majority of noodle meals. These results suggest that cost food habits, compatible flavor combinations, and food preference of children rather than nutritional considerations contributed to the selection of food items for the components of noodle meals in the school foodservices.

Frying is the most popular cooking style used in food service institutions in Korea because fried dishes are well accepted by students. However, trans fat contents reduction have recently been required in many foods for health reasons Therefore, alternatives to frying such as oven baking or roasting are being used in many institutions. Steam convection ovens provide dry heat as well as steam so that they can be used to make a wide variety of Korean dishes. In this study, a menu acceptance test was conducted over 2 weeks. Pork, chicken, fish and potato dishes cooked by conventional cooking methods were served for 4 successive days, after which the same dishes were prepared using the oven. Overall, 322 junior high school students evaluated the traditionally cooked foods, while 316 evaluated the oven cooked foods. Comparison of the foods prepared using both methods only revealed a significant difference in the acceptability of foods on the fish menu (p<0.05). Specifically, the acceptance of fried fish was higher than that of the oven baked fish. Additionally, overall acceptance of the menu by males was higher than the acceptance by girls. Furthermore, students who had the preference for special ingredients showed a higher menu acceptance for the menu cooked with those ingredients. On average, approximately 25% of the meal was not consumed and left as plate waste. The portion of the fried fish not consumed was smaller than that of the oven cooked fish, but the portion not consumed did not vary based on cooking method for any other foods evaluated. Overall, it is expected that the oven cooking method will be a good substitute for frying or other cooking method for traditional Korean dishes.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of Centers for Child-care Foodservice Management (CCFSM)'s support on menu management in child-care centers and kindergartens by comparing two perspectives of pre-support vs. post-support and established vs. non-established. To evaluate dietary variety, we used methods that considered both Dietary Diversity Score (DDS) and Dietary Variety Score (DVS). For surveying pre-support and post-support state by CCFSM, we collected and analyzed menus of June and September, 2012, targeting 7 CCFSM supported institutions. Meanwhile, for surveying state in CCFSM established and non-established areas, we collected and analyzed menus of June, 2012, which were implemented in institutions in CCFSM established (181 places) and non-established (106 places) areas. The results of evaluation on the dietary support by CCFSM showed that post-supporting state by CCFSM (95.3%) was significantly higher than pre-supporting state (77.2%) (p < 0.001) and established areas (87.4%) were significantly higher than non-established ones (77.2%) (p < 0.05) on 'Meeting the DRI for infant'. Evaluation of dietary variety between pre- and post-support state by CCFSM showed that post-support state (total 77.3 point) was higher than pre-support state (total 76.4 point). Evaluation of dietary variety between established and non-established areas showed that established areas (total 81.1 point) were significantly higher than non-established ones (total 77.1 point) (p < 0.001). Therefore, it is considered that dietary support service conducted by CCFSM contributes to improve variety level of diet provided by child-care centers and kindergartens.

The purpose of this study is to assess students' attitude and satisfaction of university foodservices. We conducted a survey for this study using questionnaires with 400 university students. A total of 344 students answered with a usable response rate of 86.0%. We performed a statistical data analysis using SPSS program for $X^{2}-test$ and t-test. Students visited university foodservices more frequently for lunch than for breakfast or dinner. Students' food choice depended on taste of food. The main reasons for using university cafeteria included 'a low price' and 'economy of time'. The prior complaint factor on university foodservices was 'taste of food'. Students were more satisfied with a price than other factors. They marked 'a variety of menu' as the least satisfied. The matters, such as 'more delicious food' and 'more various menu' were pointed out for improvement. In conclusion, developing tastier food and diversifying a menu are required to enhance the quality of university foodservices.

This study examined the menu management and utilization of cooking equipment at school foodservice operations in the Chonbuk area. Self-administered questionnaires were collected from a total of 193 school dietitians. Statistical data analysis was completed using the SPSS v. 11.5 program. The results are summarized as follows. Among the 193 schools, 58.5% were elementary schools and 41.5% were middle and high schools. Approximately 97% of the schools prepared meals in the conventional manner. Among the school, 68.4% had a menu cycle of 1${\sim}$2 weeks. The frequency of using convenience foods was significantly different between the elementary schools and middle and high schools(p<0.001). Approximately 45% of the dietitians responded that the most important details for menu planning were menu variety and consumer preference. However, 66.8% of the dietitians responded that a key problem for menu planning was limited and worn-out kitchen equipment. Although the cost of purchasing cooking equipment is high, most dietitians responded they have high needs for equipment in order to meet of the quantity demands of food production. In terms of utilized cooking equipment, most schools had mixers, vegetable cutters, choppers, dish washers, etc. Yet the amenities most often lacking were meat slicers, composting machines, ovens, and griddles. In utilizing the cooking equipment, there was no significant difference between the dietitians in the elementary(3.67) schools and those in the middle and high school foodservice systems(3.70); however, the utilization level was poor. Therefore, governmental regulatory agencies should review and finance support for purchasing cooking equipment. Finally, purchasing analysis was conducted regarding the dietitians' opinions on menu recipes and useful equipment.

본 연구의 목적은 서울 시내에 소재한 대표적인 특1급 호텔 이태리 레스토랑의 메뉴 품질이 고객 만족과 재방문에 미치는 영향 관계를 분석하는데 있다. 조사 기간은 2009년 6월 20일부터 6월 26일까지 7일 동안 이태리 레스토랑을 방문한 고객을 대상으로 설문조사를 하였으며, 분석방법은 빈도분석, 신뢰도분석, 요인분석, 상관관계분석, 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구 결과는 첫째, 이태리 레스토랑의 선택 기준은 음식의 맛이며, 이태리 레스토랑의 메뉴 품질에 대한 총 45개의 변수를 가지고 요인분석을 실시한 결과, 메뉴 구성 요인, 음식 품질 요인, 메뉴 서비스 요인으로 도출되었다. 둘째, 이태리 레스토랑의 메뉴 품질 중에서 메뉴 구성과 메뉴 서비스가 고객 만족에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 고객 만족은 재방문에 유의한 정(＋)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 이태리 레스토랑의 메뉴 품질 중에서 메뉴 구성은 재방문에 유의한 정(＋)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났는데, 음식 품질과 메뉴 서비스는 재방문에 유의한 정(＋)의 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 연구의 한계점으로는 서울 시내에 소재한 특1급 호텔 이태리 레스토랑으로 지역을 제한하여 조사를 하였기 때문에 전체적인 이태리 레스토랑의 메뉴 품질을 대표할 수 없다고 생각된다. 향후 연구에서는 외식업체의 이태리 메뉴 품질에 관한 다양한 연구가 진행이 되어야 하겠다.
