Meal plans and prices

Meal plans for IEP house residents are included in the board expenses. The meal plan offers three meals a day every weekday.

 

The chef: Mark Schoenweiss

Chef Mark Schoenweiss has worked at the IEP LLC since it first opened its doors to residents.

The IEP House has the good fortune of employing a chef with not only good cooking skills, but also a pedagogical dedication. Knowing that the students will encounter different foods abroad, and that their career goals will bring them into contact with a multicultural kitchen and dining experiences with high behavioral expectations, he prepares and serves meals that many have not encountered before. Thus, when the students are abroad or in a corporate board room, entrées such as red cabbage, Sauerbraten, canard á l’orange, poached salmon and West African peanut soup will not take them fully by surprise.
