With 10 reservations at three different restaurants, the trip offered meals of Italian, French and German cuisine. On Friday, January 23rd, the CAP Board hosted a Restaurant Week trip. Restaurant Week is a nationwide event run by expensive restaurants in the city. Many colleges around the country participate and run trips. Typically a $35 meal including multiple courses and dessert, CAP Board ran the trip for Cabrini students for only $15. Some restaurants give an hour and a half time limit, where others allow an unlimited experience. CAP Board has hosted the trip before, and it’s usually a huge hit.

Malley DeSanto, sophomore communication major, enjoyed the opportunity to go on this trip. “I liked how the price for the trip was affordable, so that it gave everyone a chance to try some really good food,” DeSanto said. “The restaurant was really nice, and a lot of people said it was their first time going to a fancy place like that.”

Bryana Manning, sophomore English and secondary education major and CAP Board member, planned the trip with her partner Rusleykah Chevalier.

“It was lots of fun! We got to experience what it’s like to eat at a fancy restaurant at a low and affordable cost for college students,” Manning said. “It was a pretty good turn-out. Out of the three restaurants we booked, two were completely sold out. I know restaurant week itself is big in the community. A lot of students go on their own with friends.”

Manning says that the CAP Board definitely plans on running the trip again, due to its high success. She enjoys her job as an active member of the board.

“I enjoy planning events, gaining professional experience and getting to know so many people I would never have had the opportunity to before,” Manning said.

Anyone who is interested has the chance to be a part of CAP Board. They can do so by becoming an Assistant Planner and learn about the program on a close and personal level with the others member. As an AP, one gets to meet the other members and learn the ins and outs by assisting with the events the board runs.

Upcoming events run by CAP Board include the Flyers game on the 27th, the Pinterest Party on the 30th and an ice skating trip Friday, February 6th.
