December Update: You Asked, Dining Delivered!

Happy students

The Dining Services listening tour continues this fall. Below is an update of additional changes made since our last October update in response to customer feedback.

Lava Cake Showdown
Due to the popularity of the stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookie offered at the Winter Celebration Dinner, Harrison Dining Hall will be serving them again during dinner on Monday, December 9 along with Molten Double Chocolate Cake and gourmet Giffords classic vanilla ice cream.

Additional condiments and spices at Harrison Dining Hall
Customers can now enjoy sub oil at the deli, olive oil, vinegar, and fresh lemon wedges at the salad bar, and cinnamon at the Flavor Station.

Customer favorites, more frequently!
Requests from our customers for their favorite items to be served more frequently have been added on additional days at Harrison Dining Hall: chicken alfredo, traditional wings on the bone, Buffalo brussels sprouts, additional (non-egg) entrée at breakfast, jerk chicken, customizable breakfast sandwiches, made-to-order grill at lunch with melty cheeseburgers, deconstructed spring rolls, and our delicious creamy pesto sauce on our pasta bar.

Halal proteins
Halal-certified proteins are labeled at Harrison Dining Hall and Brockway Dining Hall Express. Guests can look for our green “H” stickers designating items. 

More diverse menus
Dining Services continues its Heritage Month Recipe Series to celebrate diversity through food. Customers can vote on their favorite offerings which are then incorporated into our regular menus. This semester Dining Services celebrated Hispanic Heritage and Native American Heritage and added the following favorites to our regular menus for the spring semester: baked farmer gourds, sumac braised beef, Mexican street corn salad, and candied plantains. Also, with the help of student employees, Dining Services featured a couple of Nigerian recipes including Chicken and Rice which has also been added to the menu rotation. Dining Services looks forward to celebrating Black History Month in February as part of its Heritage Month Recipe Series.

Breakfast Sandwiches Available All Day
Breakfast sandwiches are now available all day at The Square and Raj Madan Café.

These are just some of the changes underway – look for more in the spring semester. Customer feedback is important to us. If you have feedback – whether you enjoyed your meal, someone made your day, or you wish to see something different, complete a Feedback Form and let Dining Services know!
