P lease join us for our annual dinner – Courses XX Chefs’ Dinner – to benefit student scholarships at HFC on Saturday, Nov. 6, at 6:00 p.m. in Fifty-One O One, HFC’s student-run restaurant.

Nothing brings us more joy than developing the next generation of Detroit’s great chefs and hospitality professionals. Sharing the experience is at the heart of why we operate our student-run restaurant.

The new look, feel, and menu in the Fifty-One O One Restaurant draws its inspiration from local farms and markets, focusing on exceptional ingredients at the peak of their season. The path from earth to plate remains clear, and the cuisine reflects the complex layers of subtle craft beneath a simple decorative style.
