About Restaurant: Ernest’s Dining Room at NAIT has been aptly described as the “jewel in the crown” of Hokanson Centre for Culinary Arts in the School of Skilled Trades. Ernest’s decor is described as “understated elegance”. Tasteful compliments of cherry wood and brass highlights, a beautiful rock feature wall, muted lighting and attention to detail provide the room with a distinct corporate ambience. Critically acclaimed and numerous accolades identify the “haute cuisine” prepared by second year Culinary Arts diploma students as “outstanding”. OpenTable diners voted Ernest’s top 100 in Canada for two consecutive years. Seasoned chef instructors emphasize the importance of using high quality local regional products. Mastery of traditional cookery combined with contemporary artistry has resulted in a truly electric cuisine. Elegant service is provided by eager Culinary and Hospitality students. An emphasis on etiquette and authenticity is encouraged through the guidance of professional mentors.
