We Invite You to Dine in Our Culinary Classroom
The John Holley Dining Room is a beautiful facility that opens its culinary season
with a variety of "classes" available to the public simulating an operating restaurant.
This classroom is named in honor of Mr. Holley for his contributions, leadership and
passion to the Culinary Program during his 14-year teaching career at the College.
This state-of-the-art classroom allows instruction that integrates industry technology,
systems and innovation. Students experience quality “hands-on” learning by interacting
with dining guests. Each Fall and Spring this classroom serves à la carte luncheon
menus, banquet-style “Cuisines of the World” menus and in the Spring a magnificent
dinner featuring frequently changing menus that emphasize the classical French cuisine
as was prepared during the lifetime of Escoffier.
We consider the John Holley Dining Room, located on the first floor of the Advanced
Technology Center, to be a place for diners to meet and enjoy the atmosphere, ambience
and culinary delights that our students create. At the same time, we remember that
this is a classroom and that properly combining fine service and food is work as both
an art and as a practice. Reservations are required.
