Introduction

Meal Match is not another system to learn. It is a quiet layer of intelligence — placed beneath the work your chefs already do — that transforms a single recipe into operational clarity, transparent hospitality, and a deeply personal guest experience.

Your recipes already exist.
We make them powerful.

Chapter Guest Value

Premium hospitality deserves
premium transparency.

Every event menu — every dish in the staff canteen — quietly communicates the values your guests already care about. One recipe, multiple audiences, perfectly consistent.

Event food offer · Three signed menus

Pick a menu. See how it performs.

Three pre-composed menus, each scored 0–100 on health and sustainability — the two numbers planners can sign off on, and guests immediately understand.

For event clients

Quotation becomes a conversation about values.

Corporate dinners. Weddings. Conferences. Galas. The proposal you send already carries the health and sustainability story of every course.

For your team

Healthier choices, made effortless.

The same indicators appear in the employee restaurant, helping every colleague choose well — without ever turning lunch into a lecture.

Chapter Meal Match

Every guest.
Every outlet.
Perfectly matched.

The recipes from every outlet quietly join into one connected ecosystem. The guest sets a simple profile. From that moment, the hotel already knows what suits them.

"I don't need to study menus anymore."
The hotel already knows what suits me.

The proposition

One recipe.
Three powerful outcomes.

I

Operational Excellence

Upload recipes once. A structured, hotel-wide database appears. Costing, allergens and engineering — at last in one quiet place.

II

Premium Guest Communication

Sustainability and nutrition for every event menu and every employee meal. The Dolder difference, made legible.

III

Personalised Hospitality

Meal Match turns every menu into a recommendation, across every outlet. Intelligence behind the scenes. Simplicity in front.

Meal Match transforms recipe data into a better guest experience, smarter culinary decisions and measurable sustainability — without changing how chefs create food.

A minimal arrangement of fresh ingredients

Development roadmap

Three phases.
Built deliberately, together.

An eleven-to-thirteen-month path from a single source of culinary truth to fully personalised guest experiences — sequenced so each phase delivers value on its own.

An invitation

We are looking for development partners to build Meal Match with us — contributing financially, through industry know-how, or with personal resources and time.

The Dolder Grand is not just a launch client. It is the kind of partner that can shape a category. We are open to capital participation, culinary and operational expertise, and hands-on collaboration from leaders who believe food deserves the same rigour as the rest of luxury hospitality.
