Hey there, time traveller!

On Thursday morning, the reservation hotline for the seasonal Grey Owl restaurant will open, said Steve Renton, the academic co-ordinator for the Manitoba Institute for Culinary Arts.
The restaurant, located in a Victorian dining hall on the Assiniboine Community College’s North Hill campus, has room for 65 people per night from Jan. 23 to Feb. 17, which gives up to 1,300 diners the opportunity to be served by students in the culinary arts ands restaurant and hotel management programs.
Starting at 9 a.m. Thursday, people are welcome to call 725-8738 to reserve a spot in the restaurant that provides students a practicum in a fine dining operation.
Some of the items, such as the ebony and ivory chocolate soup, are creations developed by students themselves. Other interesting menu items include an expresso and cocoa-rubbed New York strip steak in a shiraz reduction.
The menu is fresh every year, but also includes a few standbys, such as the ribeye steak and creme brulee. This year, salads will include products grown by horticultural students in the college’s greenhouse.
