special events on campus

memorable experiences

Our dining team loves to create unique, memorable events for our guests on campus. From our exclusive Farm Table Dinners to large scale market celebrations with local partners, we want dining events to be remembered long after our guests leave campus. Here are just a few examples of special events that we organize each year.

Farm Table Dinners

Our Farm Table Dinners feature a 5 course tasting menu, featuring seasonal and locally procured ingredients. This exclusive event is a wonderful way for our chefs to show off their culinary talent!

HEALTH AND WELLBEING EVENTS

Our Health and Wellbeing Manager holds many events on campus each year. The events are intended both to promote to students the many dietary options that our dining program offers, as well as to educate students about nutrition and healthy eating. Some events include a Plant Forward Passport week and a Brain Foods event during exams!

LOCAL TASTINGS

We are working with more and more local vendors every year, and we love to share those products with everyone on campus! Look for our local vendors to set up tables around campus to share their products and stories with our community.

Chef's Tables

Chef's Tables are a great way for our culinary team to get right in front of our guests. Our chefs will create a special menu centered on a dish that they love, and then will serve it right to our guests for them to enjoy!

Pop-Ups

We hold frequent impromptu pop-ups around campus as a surprise for students! Our chefs will surprise students outside our dining locations all over campus with a special treat, ranging from matcha lemonade mocktails to a grilled sweet corn station.

Teaching Kitchens

Teaching kitchens give students the unique opportunity to interact in a small class setting with our trained chefs. Students are shown live demonstrations of popular dishes, and are encouraged to cook along with our chefs. At the end of each class, students go home with delicious dishes and recipe cards to help recreate them at home!
