On Oct. 22, Marathon High School’s Dolphin Bistro celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month with a Latin fusion dinner. Staffed by students from the school’s Pro Start culinary arts program, the themed menu featured Peruvian grilled chicken with chimichurri sauce, two varieties of roasted pork, crispy rice and pork balls and much more, capped off by tres leches cake and a citrus flan for dessert.
“The Bistro gives the students a real-life look at how the hospitality industry is run and prepares them for different paths in the workfield,” said school culinary mastermind Chef Flavor. “We depend on community support. When you come in, just remember that these are students still learning about the industry.”
Though Chef reminded the Weekly that his students aren’t “seasoned veterans” just yet, many visitors to the Bistro have told the Weekly they beg to differ.
The Bistro’s next dinner is tentatively scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 17 with a menu to be determined. Follow Dolphin Bistro on Facebook for more details.
