So...how's the food?

<p>I was looking on Rice's dining services, and I saw that for breakfast at the West Colleges yesterday, the chiefs were apparently serving fish taco...There also seems to be a limited amount of vegetarian options on certain days. </p>

<p>Can someone give me their honest opinion on the food available at Rice? And as a vegetarian, would I still be able to eat well?</p>

<p>What they post online is definitely not the full menu.</p>

<p>The food(especially at West Servery) is top-notch when it comes to college food. They usually have about 2 main vegetarian dishes for every meal. There is also a pasta station that always has vegetarian pasta/rice/cous cous. For every meal they have a very good salad bar(many different types of lettuce/pasta salad/hummus/eggs etc), soup of the day, fruit, and sandwich station. They also have Silk if you need that option. I have many vegetarian friends and they seem happy with the selection.</p>

<p>Also every wednesday for dinner, Chef Rogers makes the BEST cinnamon rolls and every tuesday he makes homemade pita bread with fresh humus and feta.</p>

<p>I second aufossil21. The food is great – better than Rice’s competition, I believe, even though Cornell does have pretty good food also.</p>

<p>Just a note: students can eat at any servery they want…</p>

<p>Anxiousmom,</p>

<p>So all it took was a little food talk to bring you back to the table!
So happy to see a new anxiousmom post!</p>

<p>To see what they’re eating on campus, just click the globe:
[West</a> Servery](<a href=“http://dining.rice.edu/locations/west_servery.html]West”>http://dining.rice.edu/locations/west_servery.html)</p>

<p>East Servery on the other side of campus is also opening up next semester – it’s supposed to have awesome food, <em>possibly</em> more awesome than that of West Servery (crepery ftw!)</p>

<p>and well hey, have a lookie here:</p>

<p>[Food</a> Selection - College Eating - Seventeen](<a href=“http://www.seventeen.com/college/freshman-15/college-food-selections]Food”>Food Selection - College Eating)</p>

<p>Wait, east is going to have a crepery?!?!?!?!?</p>

<p>Why yes, yes it will.</p>

<p>Om Nom Nom.</p>

<p>crepery win!</p>

<p>OMG YESSSSSSSSS…crepes are so awesome!</p>

<p>Rice food is delicious, but there’s somewhat of an imbalance between serveries. South and Sid Rich suck, but North and West are good. North is better than West, imo. The only fault of the serveries is that very occasionally they serve horrible fake chinese food. Other than that, top notch. You’ll find dozens of foods you’ve never even heard of before.</p>

<p>Oh vegetarian? Yeah it’s pretty good.</p>

<p>This looks like fun [Rice</a> University | News & Media](<a href=“http://www.media.rice.edu/media/NewsBot.asp?MODE=VIEW&ID=13503]Rice”>http://www.media.rice.edu/media/NewsBot.asp?MODE=VIEW&ID=13503) And is there still a cooking class taught by one of the servery chefs?</p>

<p>Rice dining services has a facebook page too! Lots of interesting stuff</p>

<p>
