“Our new model provides a much more realistic representation to students of what a career in the food industry is really like. Our primary goal is to become the country’s only fully student-operated restaurant.” The summer culinary team is being led by a well-known name in the culinary field, CIC graduate and current Chef Instructor Stephen Hunter whose menu philosophy is ‘local ingredient driven’. “The summer is a very exciting time for us in the kitchen…. we change menus often to take advantage of seasonal products such as vegetables, seafood, and foraged items. As a chef, I’m very interested in sourcing
the best local ingredients and really building the menu around them.”
Chef Hunter and his culinary team have some of the most skilled, knowledgeable and passionate industry minds –from across the country and around the world - and have come together to offer an exceptional evening dining experience in the heart of Charlottetown for locals and tourists alike. “Of course, we will be highlighting products that the Island has long been associated with, such as lobster, oysters, mussels, and the fantastic beef we are fortunate enough to have produced here. That being said we are always looking for new, not so traditional foods that we are very excited to work with.” “The summer is a very exciting time for us in the kitchen…. we change menus often to take advantage of seasonal products such as vegetables, seafood, and foraged items.” - Chef Stephen Hunter
