So how are people liking LC?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Fordham University

<p>Just curious what your (or your kids') experiences have been so far. Any tips for good cheap places to eat, activities?</p>

<p>If you need a hole-in-the-wall-Mexican-food fix, the Burrito Box a few blocks south of LC is so tasty. It’s about the same cost as Chipotle and infinitely less banal.</p>

<p>My daughter loves the Waffle Cart. She has an app on her phone so she can see where they are.
She eats at Chipotle a lot. </p>

<p>She is having a great year this year (sophomore- honors program). Her classes are much easier this year after last years non-stop classes and homework and papers. She has an internship with BroadwayWorld.com, her suitemates clean up after themselves and aren’t drinking every night, also a big change from last year. </p>

<p>She just bought 35 old Playbills at the Broadway Flea Market last weekend. She is in exactly the best place in the world for her.</p>

<p>My daughter loves Fordham so far. She’s there specifically for the theater program, so issues like food, roommates, etc., are all secondary to her. As a vegetarian, she is used to frustrating food situations. She’s perfectly happy cooking for herself in her suite. Her roommates have turned out to be wonderful-- the luck of the draw. </p>

<p>Where to eat cheaply around Lincoln Center? She has a sister who goes to school in Lincoln Center (not Fordham) and one thing we have learned over the years is: you don’t eat cheaply around LC. Lots of great food in NYC, though, but for daily shopping my daughter has been going to Trader Joe’s and a grocery a few blocks away (I forget the name.) Whole Foods in Columbus Circle is too expensive.</p>

<p>Western Beef maybe? My daughter goes there sometimes. She also gets occasional deals at CVS on cereal, crackers, etc. She gets coupons and points and gets some good prices.</p>

<p>That sounds like the place (but she must have coughed on the word “beef”, being a vegetarian and all.)</p>

<p>My son really likes it, says the people are nice. Has found the cafe progressively more inedible but mostly eats from Trader Joe’s.</p>
