Silver anniversary
From gourmet food to impeccable service, a gala dinner was the highlight of a two-day celebration held in recognition of the Department of Hotel, Restaurant and Institutional Management’s 25th anniversary last week. Nearly 190 guests enjoyed hors d’oeuvres and a four-course meal created by alumni celebrity chefs Maria Tampakis (Class of 2008), Steve Giardini (2004) and Scott Heckert (2001) on Thursday evening. Chef Dana Herbert (1998), winner of the TLC reality show Next Great Baker, created an anniversary cake.
