Today, my students participated in a gallery walk featuring restaurant promotional items I have collected over the years. They examined the items to see how restaurants use creative merchandise, product samples, packaging, and giveaways to market their brands and connect with customers.

As a ProStart school, Brazoswood High School is a member of the Texas Restaurant Association. This membership gives our culinary instructors the opportunity to attend the Texas Restaurant Show at no charge, where we can explore current industry trends, discover new products, connect with professionals, and collect real-world examples to bring back to the classroom. This year’s show featured an incredible 602 vendors!

Experiences like today’s gallery walk help our students connect classroom lessons in restaurant marketing and promotion to the real hospitality industry.

Final cooking lab of the year. Years 3 and 4 students had to plan and execute 3 different dessert styles, a verrine, an entremet and a tart. Three desserts was quite the task. Some students were very successful and I'm proud of them all.
