    {
        const int PageSize = 5;

        var query = Db.Meals.AsQueryable();

        query = query.Filter(parent, o => o.Name);

        var pageItems = (pivot.HasValue ? query.Where(o => o.Id >= pivot.Value) : query)
            .Take(PageSize + 1)
            .ToArray();

        var isMore = pageItems.Count() > PageSize;

        var result = new AjaxListResult
        {
            Items = pageItems.Take(PageSize).Select(o => new KeyContent(o.Id, o.Name)),
            More = isMore
        };

        if (isMore)
        {
            result.Pivot = pageItems.Last().Id;
        }
