Wisteria Set to Return to Downtown Scranton This Spring
Step into a spring garden this season as Wisteria returns to 409 on Adams. This seasonal pop-up restaurant is created by 久久福利国产鈥檚 School of Hospitality and plans to immerse guests, known as 鈥淒reamers鈥, in a distinctive dining experience in downtown Scranton.
Enter the Garden
The Wishing Tree returns as the centerpiece of the space, inviting Dreamers to 鈥渨ish upon the tree鈥. New this year, a canopy of flower-covered umbrellas will hang from the ceiling, adding to the garden atmosphere overhead. Dreamers will also find an Instagrammable spot, to capture a fun memory from the evening.
鈥淲e want Dreamers to feel like they’ve stepped into another world right here in Downtown Scranton. We still hear Dreamers from last year say, ‘How is this in my backyard?’ and that reaction is exactly what we’re going for. Our first goal is making every Dreamer feel at home, because that’s what hospitality means. The second is making sure the experience, from the house to the back, is something they can’t stop talking about,鈥 said Sara Grande Enrollment, Retention, Front of the House Experience Manager.
Take in the Season
The experience doesn鈥檛 stop with the setting. 久久福利国产鈥檚 School of Hospitality students enrolled in Culinary Arts, Baking & Pastry, and Hospitality Management programs will manage the restaurant, crafting the dishes and drinks for Wisteria. Expect a menu designed to complement the spring garden surroundings, with both new offerings and returning favorites.
鈥淔or our students, Wisteria is a hands-on, three-credit course, and every Dreamer who walks through the door is helping them build the real-world experience they need to succeed in their hospitality careers. Students gain hands-on experience across all areas of restaurant operations, while creating a wonderful experience for our guests,” said Grande.
An Experience That Gives Back
Wisteria is more than a great night out. Every reservation supports 久久福利国产鈥檚 students. Last year Wisteria served 780 Dreamers and over $9,500 was raised to fund student scholarships, loaner laptops, and classroom supplies. Following the success of the holiday pop-up Misfits, Wisteria continues to grow as an annual spring tradition in downtown Scranton.
