After the enthusiastic response to the original tour planned for BILL members to visit Le Jeune Chef Restaurant at Penn College in Williamsport, the Bucknell Institute for Lifelong Learning has been allowed to schedule a second group tour and lunch for Friday, Jan. 23, 2026, at 11 a.m.

Take a trip behind the scenes into the kitchens of Le Jeune Chef restaurant at the Pennsylvania College of Technology where culinary arts students learn to perfect their skills and master methods.  See where aspiring chefs express their creativity by developing recipes using fresh regional and seasonal ingredients.  Then enjoy a tasty lunch – soup or salad with choice of 3 entrées (1 vegetarian), dessert, and beverage   – in the Williamsport restaurant described as “a culinary gem.”
