German term or phrase: Aufwärmküche
This is in a description of a construction contract for a school:

"Da die Grundschule die Schüler auch betreut, realisiert die XXX auch zwei Gruppenräume mit Nebenräumen sowie eine *Aufwärmküche* mit Essraum."
I suppose these are lunchrooms without a cafeteria, and a kitchen with microwave ovens for warming up food, and I imagine food dispensing machines will also be available, or am I wrong about this? I don't know anyone with schoolage children in the US, so I don't really know. Is there an AE term for this? Thanks very much.
