GRCC alumnus Don Kasten visits Culinary Institute
Don Kasten, GRCC Culinary alumnus and professor at John Folse Culinary Academy at Nicholls State University, along with Monica Larousse recently visited with faculty and staff from the Secchia Institute for Culinary Education. They were here to research current practices with Chef-Tec (an online ordering and inventory system) and to meet with faculty regarding the retail practices of The Heritage and Art and Bev’s.
The Heritage restaurant reopens January 22, 2013
Hello, friends: We are proud of our culinary school and would like to share this experience with all of you. Notice these great links for the Secchia Institute for Culinary Education and The Heritage Restaurant:
- Please join our email club for free gifts of food and desserts throughout the year.
- See our hours and menus on our website.
- Make reservations through OpenTable.
On January 22, 2013, The Heritage reopens for this semester of dining. The Heritage Restaurant is one of the many classroom laboratory facilities operated by the Secchia Institute for Culinary Education at Grand Rapids Community College. The restaurant is staffed by students in the Culinary Arts and Culinary Management programs and is under the direct supervision and watchful eyes of professionally trained chefs and table service professors. During the luncheon hours, your meal will be prepared and served by freshman students. The meals featured represent International Cuisine with modern and classical touches. The style of table service is distinctly American. In the evening, we feature a relaxed atmosphere, more Continental Cuisine, and our sophomore students preparing much of your meal before your eyes. The table service is a mixture of American and French; the food–wonderful.
Our student bistro, Art & Bev’s Deli-Bakery, is located on the second level of the Wisner-Bottrall Applied Technology Center. Each day you will find a changing variety of freshly prepared gourmet-to-go items as well as baked-today breads and pastries.
The Secchia Institute for Culinary Education restaurants and kitchens are our classroom settings. We take pride in them. We prepare our meals daily with the finest seasonally available ingredients, fresh produce and dairy products, quality poultry and fish, home-styled baked breads, and taste-tempting desserts. We serve our meals with equal pride.
We look forward to seeing you.
