    My Favorite Hospitality Lab
    Ehron takes you through his favorite restaurant — our student-run lab right here on campus, where waiters glide past each other, chefs prep huge meals and a house manager helps the whole thing run smoothly.

    "This lab is really what sold JWU for me," Ehron says. "Knowing that at the end of my college career, I would have the opportunity of actually running an establishment, and learning how running an establishment works."

    "It’s pretty amazing to say that I have done that already — to know that you actually put together an establishment within 4-5 weeks, and then actually put it to test on campus." Explore our Restaurant, Food & Beverage Management program.
