<p>i really like eating so it'll be a big factor for me :)</p>
<p>For current students:</p>
<p>which dining common do you like the most?
how often do you eat there?
how's the food? is there a large variety?
what meal plan do you suggest? i'm choosing between 14 or 19. i want to eat 3 meals a day for sure but i don't know if i'd rather get 14 and just cook or go out to eat for the other times.</p>
<p>1) which dining common do you like the most?
- For me I prefer Carrillo dining common because they have chefs that can cook. </p>
<p>2) how often do you eat there?
- Usually there for lunch after I have classes. I live at FT so it'll be a hassle to bike there for dinner every night. But every thursday night I would carpool with friends there just to eat dinner.</p>
<p>3) Generally speaking they have all type of food: american, asian cuisine, mexican, etc. There's always sushi at Ortega dining common at lunch. Can't go wrong with that.</p>
<p>4) Get a 14, trust me on this it will be all you need. Most people can't/won't wake up to eat breakfast unless they have an 8 am class. It's always fun to go out to eat, especially in IV and downtown but it can get rather expensive, so spend your money wisely. If you're really on a budget, Dominos have a carry out deal for a large one topping pizza for 7 bucks. Best damn deal I've seen in IV.</p>
<p>Definitely get the 14 meal/week plan. You can always upgrade to the 19 if you need to. Downgrading from 19 to 14 is tougher.</p>
