<p>With the meal plan can you eat at /any/ of the dining commons? Also, hows the food. Ext. explain everything and anything!</p>
<p>with the meal plans, you can eat at any of the 4 dining commons DLG, ortega, carillo, or portola. the food is average. it’s not a homecooked meal or anything but it’ll fill you up but it gets old after a while but i guess that’s the same with any campus dining commons</p>
<p>Yes, you can eat at any of the dining commons. Santa Catalina is supposedly bad but I never ate there. I thought the food was food, lots of variety (even for a vegetarian). The breakfast/brunch is especially good!</p>
<p>the food is pretty good, although I get really sick of it towards the end of the quarter.</p>
<p>How’s the food in terms of being able to make healthy choices?</p>
<p>What would you say is the best choice in meal plans? 10? 14? or 19? Is there the choice of making your own food somewhere on the premises?</p>
<p>blocko:
there are quite a bit of choices and they label everything in terms of vegetarian or food for passover etc. each dining common has a salad bar so you can make a salad if you wish but i cant speak for portola as i have yet to dine there.</p>
<p>muserz:
10 meals if you plan to get 2 meals a day and meals off campus on the weekends unless you skip a meal or two during the week
14 meals if you plan to get 2 meals a day every day or 3-4 if you skimp somewhere later in the week
19 meals if you plan on getting 3 meals a day every day except for weekends which only serves 2 meals brunch and dinner.</p>
<p>most dorms have a small kitchen with a sink, stove, sometimes an oven, and a microwave so you can attempt to make food there if you so wished but the items to cook with are limited but if you wished, you can ask your hall council to spend money to buy more cooking utensils.</p>
