Bricco

Bricco is collaboration between the Olewine School of Culinary Arts at Harrisburg Area Community College and Harrisburg Hotel Corporation, managing general partner of The Hilton Harrisburg. In our kitchens, HACC¿s chefs and restaurateurs of the future perfect their skills alongside some of the brightest stars in the industry today.

Bricco was made possible through a gift from Benjamin Olewine III and his family. A visionary, Mr. Olewine realized that a facility of this quality would allow the Olewine School of Culinary Arts to position itself amongst the elite of culinary programs in the country. Mr. Olewine's passion for the food service industry started in 1932 when, as a young boy, he worked behind the counter of his father's business, Olewine's Cheese House, located in the Chestnut Street Market, just steps away from our restaurant. He steadfastly built the business into one of the top seventy-five institutional food companies in the country before selling to Sysco Foods in 1988. Throughout his career, he was known for his passion, loyalty, commitment to quality and his benevolence. It is Bricco's goal to honor Mr. Olewine and his family by embracing his legacy of quality, integrity and service.
We believe that great cuisine features the freshest and best quality ingredients on the market. This project has been partially funded by a grant from the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture.
