UCLA dining halls are contributing to the obesity in college students

<p>Haha.. joke, but seriously the food is delicious. I'm asian and I don't think I've had better Asian food in expensive restaurants. delicioussssssssssssssssss!</p>

<p>dining hall food sucks. there arent that many fat kids here.</p>

<p>the asian food in all of ucla is garbage. Late night dogs are bomb tho</p>

<p>The food isn’t amazing, but the convenience is. I can roll out of my bed and be eating within a few minutes.</p>

<p>At least the OP is easily impressed.</p>

<p>Wow at the part about expensive asian places. I’ve eaten at cheaper places that tasted far better. </p>

<p>The food is decent, but it helps that the food is “free” depending on how you view it. You can’t split up your dorm costs with food costs so it feels free to me. It’s also very convenient.</p>

<p>if you think the asian food here is good then you must be .000000000000000000000001% asian</p>

<p>??? Panda express tastes better than UCLA’s “asian” food.</p>

<p>What the hell kinda asian restaurants do you go to??</p>

<p>the asian food is catered to white people, not asians. hence you have the “white” asian food such as broccoli beef, kung pao chicken, mandarin chicken etc… dishes that white people like to eat. with that said, stargalaxy is obviously 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999% white and .000000000000000000000000000000000000001% asian.</p>

<p>I don’t know about the dining halls, but I would say Rendezvous is just a crappy ripoff of Panda Express.</p>

<p>Dorm food has a lot of processed food.</p>

<p>You can’t possible say it’s as healthy as a homecooked meal. Of course there’s always options such as salads.</p>

<p>Fun fact: The Rendevous breakfast burrito has 120% of your daily cholesterol value.</p>

<p>I felt that dorm food was a bunch of same ingredients just cooked in many different combinations. Plus they change the names all the time … but it’s the same dish. I don’t think it’s the main dishes which are making people fat, it’s the desserts, sodas, smoothies, and any late night extra meals people eat.</p>

<p>And Rendezvous food is … terrible … worse than Panda Express … but better than nothing.</p>

<p>check this out

and dont get me started on how greasy the asian food is … but just to be fair the asian food doesnt taste that bad… i mean like panda express isnt that much better, but probably a little better for u though… since their fried rice isnt covered in oil.</p>

<p>Lol. Rendezvous’s Asian food ain’t that bad. Definitely not as good/healthy/authentic as what I got at home… Though I think their Mexican food is terrible. Even the carts in my neighborhood had better tacos. (God, I miss having real Asian/Mexican food… I actually spent about an hour on yelp looking for a good “pho” place and got annoyed the nearest was like almost an hour by bus.)</p>

<p>I still think the dinning hall food is good though, so long as you look at the menu beforehand… But I can easily see how you can get tired of it (and I’m only a freshie).</p>

<p>The asian food in the dorms is pretty bad.</p>

<p>I’m excited for Cafe 1919.</p>

<p>You can no longer call yourself Asian.</p>

<p>I’m not excited for Cafe 1919. I want Puzzles.</p>

<p>ugh puzzles was nasty. the chicken nuggets were just fried batter. barely any actual chicken. im just looking forward to the gelato</p>

<p>Agreed, Puzzles sucked, hardly ever ate there because I always felt sick afterwards. I’ve heard mixed things about Cafe 1919. </p>

<p>And to the people bashing UCLA dorm food… how many of you have eaten in the dining halls at other colleges? We’re pretty spoiled; our food may not be great all the time but it’s still better than the dining hall food I’ve had at any other school.</p>

<p>Hahaha, maybe that’s why I’m not such a basher (in comparison to the others). I’ve eaten at UCSB… and it left much to be desired (or maybe I just came at a bad day, who knows.).</p>

<p>i miss puzzles ice cream</p>

<p>Puzzles was such good food for when you got munchies :[</p>
