Il-Menħir restaurant stands as the exclusive dining establishment in our campus in Gozo,
aptly named after a prehistoric artifact unearthed in the village of Qala, where the
campus is situated. This training restaurant is skilfully managed by ITS lecturers and students.
Within the confines of the restaurant, guests encounter two simultaneous learning sessions:
a service lecture in the front of house and a kitchen lecture held in the back of house.
As a result of the restaurant's educational mission and the concurrent lectures,
instructors may provide valuable feedback to students, fostering their growth in
knowledge, skills, and service.
