Experience an extraordinary culinary journey at The Voyage Restaurant,
where the Institute of Tourism Studies (ITS) immerses students in a
world of gastronomy. Here, our students develop a diverse skill set,
from the art of food presentation to the creation of exquisite dishes
right before your eyes.
Throughout your dining experience, you'll encounter four distinct
educational sessions. In the front of the house, we offer service
and bar lectures, while in the kitchen, you'll find lectures on
both culinary and pastry skills.
The Voyage Restaurant welcomes guests for both lunch and dinner,
featuring a rotating prix fixe menu that showcases the gastronomic
interests and skills of our students. Our talented students craft
mouth-watering recipes on the spot, offering a tasting menu
experience that includes amuse-bouches and delicately prepared
petit fours during evening service.
As a training restaurant, we emphasize the educational aspect,
and our lecturers may provide guidance and corrections to ensure
students' growth in knowledge, skills, and service.
