Customers Buzzing Over Hornets’ Bee-stro

Thursday, February 16th, 2012

The school’s culinary students whipped up yet another feast the other day in the Hornets’ Bee-stro. This one included everything from watercress salad to boeuf bourguignon to strawberry chocolate pudding. Teen chefs figure the costs, prepare and serve the food, even clean-up afterwards. About 60 diners turned up on Valentine’s Day, including the city’s mayor.
