Created by students from start to finish for their capstone project, NOCHI’s pop-ups are the culmination of knowledge and skills acquired at the New Orleans culinary school.
We’re grateful to partner with so many amazing clients, and we’re excited to share their stories in our Client Spotlight. The New Orleans Culinary & Hospitality Institute is a culinary school standout in a city known for its remarkable cuisine. Beyond NOCHI’s hands-on dynamic curriculum, the Institute hosts a twice-yearly pop-up – a student-run dining experience that earns great reviews and showcases skills acquired while studying at the nonprofit culinary school.
Created by students from start to finish as their capstone project, NOCHI’s pop-ups give students the opportunity to apply their knowledge by designing menus, developing recipes and building a budget to support their restaurant concept. The restaurant is then brought to life over four weeks.
Food lovers, take note: NOCHI’s current fall to winter pop-up, called Embers, is open until December 12 and presents a chance to savor new flavors from graduating chefs. In addition, proceeds and donations from Embers go toward the Institute’s scholarship fund to help open doors for aspiring culinary talent. NOCHI’s next pop-up is scheduled to take place in late May or early June.
When NOCHI sought assistance for managing and processing student financial aid, they turned to Global, whose solution was the perfect ingredient for financial aid success.
NOCHI chose SAINT Student – Global’s online, mobile-responsive student financial aid portal – to support and streamline their financial aid operations. As NOCHI grows, Global will be there to scale their financial aid processes with ongoing support.
