Probably all three.

Was half expecting another food network segment

I guess if this is the all ages children's waiting room, the older kids would have some kind of smart device to tool around with.

Will
3d6 <= 11
6 + 3 + 4 = 13 ... failure

On a success:
I look around the room. What could have done that? Maybe it could be somewhere hidden... Maybe it's related to the voice from earlier?

Well after some cursory research it seems like Hospital food has a bit more of a mixed reputation, most which relate to how institutional food works (i.e. large corporations cheaply producing premade meals at scale). It seems to be changing recently as food quality relates to nutrition, which makes cheap meals a health issue...
