Scholars Restaurant and On The Terrace Café @ Scholars welcome you to join us for our productions in Semester 2 2019.

We have a lot going on this semester with many different opportunities to see our students in action – highlighting their different programmes and skills.

Our returning Level 4 Chef students showcase their skills in a series of A la Carte dinners during August and September. As part of our students’ ‘Italian Project’, we will be holding two seven course Italian Degustation Dinners with Italian food and wine.

Our Level 5 Diploma in Cookery and Professional Food and Beverage students will end their year with a fabulous Degustation dinner during November. This year we are offering modern contemporary dishes based on the produce and suppliers from Hawke’s Bay – the culmination of the Level 5 Cookery students work over the year.

Wine matching options will be available. This has now been running for 6 years and has proven to be very popular, with nights sold out weeks in advance. So, get in quickly to avoid disappointment.

Unfortunately, we cannot cater for any special dietary requirements during the ‘Italian Project’ and Degustation dinners.

We will be running two quiz nights in October with a very loose ‘Back to School’ theme. We will have great Italian style food served throughout the night plus prizes for the best-dressed team. These nights are very popular, so start organizing your team – and your costumes – 6 per team.

The new intake of Cookery Level three students will run a two-week block of Christmas themed Bistro lunches in November.

We will be running two Bake Days in Semester 2 – one by our Level 4 bakery students – focusing on breads, cakes and biscuits. The other will be run by our Level 5 Patisserie students with a focus on cakes, pastries, pies, artisan breads and a selection of both international and local sweet treats.

On The Terrace Café will be providing counter service lunches Tuesday to Thursday through our Café Service programme. The students will be serving a fabulous selection of café style foods, great espresso coffee and tempting desserts. These items range from $4 – $8. There is no need to book for these lunches unless you have a party of 10 or more people. Brunch will also be available Wednesday and Thursday mornings in late October.

We are also offering café style lunches most Fridays in Term 3 only. These are run by our Trades Academy students. These students are still at school, but come to EIT every Friday to study various trade related careers. Please note that these lunches are not licensed.

Hastings Centre Pop Up Café. Our Hastings Centre has been open just over a year and has quickly gained a reputation for great coffee and tasty takeaway café style food and meals. We will be open for a four week period on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, so pop down and see us at 416 Heretaunga Street West in Hastings – just opposite Bunnings.
