The Bachelor of Science in Hospitality Management (BSHM) 2-A and 2-B students from the School of Business and Management (SBM) successfully conducted a two-day mock fine dining restaurant at the JHCSC Hostel, Pagadian City Extension Campus, on March 26-27. This initiative served as their mid-term examination in HM 113 Fundamentals in Food Service Operations under Course Professor Llanevie Azel Niez.
BSHM 2-A introduced “Hiraya,” a restaurant concept highlighting modern Filipino cuisine, while BSHM 2-B presented “Boscarella,” inspired by the autumn season. Both groups meticulously prepared and served a seven-course meal, which included appetizers, soup, salad, a main course, fish, and dessert, offering guests an immersive fine dining experience.
The event was graced by JHCSC President Dr. Edgardo H. Rosales, along with college officials, faculty, employees, and guests who had the opportunity to experience the studentsβ refined culinary and service skills firsthand. Their presence underscored the institutionβs commitment to providing students with practical, hands-on learning experiences in the hospitality industry.
Beyond fulfilling academic requirements, the mock fine dining event served as a vital training ground for the students, preparing them for future enhancement examinations and professional endeavors in the hospitality sector. The initiative highlighted their creativity, teamwork, and technical expertise, reaffirming JHCSCβs commitment to developing skilled professionals in food service and hospitality.
Soar high, J.H. Cerilles State College!
