On March 13, 2024, Bangkok University International students were given an exciting project-based assignment by Mr. Pattarawut Amornvech, Assistant Director of Food and Beverage – Empire Tower, from the Bangkok Marriott Marquis Queen’s Park team via a live MS Teams meeting. The task was to design a menu and table setting for a sustainable restaurant offering casual-fine dining.

This collaborative project involved students from two programs: CDI (Culinary Arts and Design) and ITHM (International Tourism and Hospitality Management). CDI students, enrolled in CDI230 Basic Design Skills for Food & Beverages, were responsible for menu design, while ITHM students, taking THI333 Food & Beverage Operations, handled the table setting to complement the designed menu.
