At Berceau des Sens, a pedagogical restaurant for EHL preparatory year students, creativity, and excellence converge.
Each week, a fresh wave of students brings new energy and vibrancy. Under the expert guidance of our Chef Christophe Schmitt, our restaurant director Thomas Fefin, and a dedicated team, they train in the nuances of service, food preparation, and the art of hospitality.
Kindness, autonomy, and high standards fuel their learning, shaping the future leaders of the hotel and restaurant industry.
Mastering the rituals, the minute details, gestures and traditions that take the dining experience from wonderful to exceptional, is at the core of our students’ learning path in the art of excellence.
Every Monday a new team comes in for two weeks of intensive training under the careful direction and guidance of our teaching staff, all experts in their respective domains.
With a daily change in station, from wine selection to service, from bartending to the kitchen brigade and everything in between, each student acquires the precious knowledge and insight they will need as future professionals, future masters in the art of hospitality excellence.
At Berceau des Sens, the culinary journey reaches new heights under the guidance of Chef Christophe Schmitt. His cuisine, both legible and sincere, draws on the richness of the terroir and the rhythm of the seasons, showcasing the very essence of each ingredient.
He finds inspiration in EHL’s educational garden and in his interactions with local producers, crafting dishes in which every element is respected and elevated.
Influenced by his travels, particularly in Asia, he weaves in subtle inspirations from afar while reimagining traditional recipes with a modern twist.
The EHL's educational garden is a nourishing source for our menu. Chef Christophe Schmitt, intimately familiar with its 3 500 m² of organic wonders, daily harvests fruits, vegetables, and herbs, creating a direct connection between earth and table.
The garden, abundant with two hundred regional plants, an orchard, and beehives, inspires and educates our students, grounding their learning in a living ecosystem.
Christophe and his team gather and enhance these seasonal treasures, crafting dishes vibrant with authenticity and freshness.
All our restaurants proudly follow the EHL Sustainable F&B Charter, ensuring every meal reflects our commitment to responsibility and excellence.
