Our Cristory's restaurant is the training environment for our Hospitality & Catering students. 
The menu has been designed by Chef Lecturer Robert Hunter, who has worked in world-class restaurants around the world, including the Goring Hotel in London. Guests can enjoy a variety of dishes which all celebrate wonderful Manx produce.
As well as Robert Hunter, students are being supported by Lecturer Irene Berry who has worked as a pastry check for Jason Atherton at Pollen Street Social which is a Michelin starred restaurant in Mayfair, London. Students working in front of house are ably assisted by Tracy Conway who has lectured at UCM since 1996 following a successful career working in hospitality and hotel management as well as in La Belle Epoch in Cheshire which was a Michelin starred restaurant at the time.
