Hello friend, I have discovered during my career that statuatory canteens are a necessary evil. You have to have them, but they are the source of a good deal of your problems.
I have also discovered a practically useful way to deal with the canteen situation. Have a management committee nominally headed by you, but represented by a cross section of the user group of employees.
You will find out to your relef that problems such as should we have sambar or dal makhani gets easily resolved by the involvement of this committee. All complaints are directed to the committee who defend it aggressively witthout you having to exert yourself.
Try it out and I'm sure you will feel relieved.
best wishes

Dear All,
Canteen Facility nowadyas has become imminent part of administrative function. No one likes to carry food from home/PG or does'nt like to roam around hotels in the lunch hour. In manufacturing and service sectors as well where the job is in shifts one expects the organisation to provide food at least at subsidised rate.
Following things can be done to avoid adverse criticism :
1. Avoid more varieties. The less you provide the less you will face criticism.
2. Never go for unlimited meals. Limited meals may not be liked by all but will prevent adverse comments.
3. Put trouble makers in the committee to shortlist the vendor and selection of menu.
4. Change the caterer at least once in six months.
5. Don't worry for minor comments.
6. Should stick on to same type of food. Surprise menu will make people like the food.
