Grant Career Center restaurant opens

The Culinary Careers Program at Grant Career Center has announced the opening of the Sports Gallery Restaurant at the Career Center on Tuesday, Sept. 20. The Sports Gallery will be open to the public on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays each week. Lunch hours are 10:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.

The students have been hard at work preparing the menu and practicing cooking skills that will result in delicious meals offered to the public. The menu includes homemade soups, a variety of luncheon salads, and specialty sandwiches. The students will also offer daily specials as well as delightful desserts.

Food preparation is included in the student course of study at the Career Center in the Culinary Careers Program. This program trains students for careers in the hospitality industry including food service, banquets, and catering.

Grant Career Center’s kitchen is equipped with state-of-the-art cooking equipment and a lab that is designed for student rotation. Perfecting their skills in each area of restaurant operation, students will be able to secure employment as a chef’s helper, cook, pantry worker, saute cook, server, broiler chef, food production manager, or restaurant manager.

The public is invited to stop in and to sample the selections they have to offer.

Instructors Ray and Gary Forsee invite community members to become a part of the educational process and have an enjoyable meal all at the same time.
