What type of foodservice delivery system serves meals rethermalized from galleys throughout the facility?

  1. Centralized

  2. Decentralized

  3. Conventional

  4. Room service

The correct answer is: Decentralized

Decentralized foodservice delivery systems are where meals are rethermalized from galleys throughout the facility. This means that food is prepared in a central kitchen or galley and then distributed to different locations throughout the facility for serving. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not involve rethermalization of meals from galleys throughout the facility. Centralized foodservice delivery systems (Option A) involve food being prepared and served from one central location, such as a main kitchen or cafeteria. Conventional foodservice delivery systems (Option C) involve food being prepared and served directly to customers at a designated serving area. Room service (Option D) involves meals being prepared and served directly to individual rooms or designated locations upon request.
