FVC Principal Dr Ken Thomson, said: “Once again the students and staff in our Hospitality Department have created a wonderful evening of fine dining accompanied by a very high standard of service. It was great to welcome so many professionals from the food and drinks industry to the event and we hope they enjoyed the evening as much as me. The continued backing of STEP for this the fourth event of its kind, is also very important for us and we hope this relationship will grow from strength to strength in the years to come.”
