Welcome Back!

Over the summer, your menu enjoyed a bit of a makeover. Our culinary team has introduced great new recipes and menu items – everything from homemade deli salads at the sandwich bar (made in-house with no additives or preservatives, which also makes them gluten free), complemented by a freshly baked bread, to several new Friday World Cuisine themes, including South American, Southeast Asian, Tex-Mex and New England menus.

Some other highlights: every day at lunch we’ll feature a hot sandwich, in addition to entrees. We now feature a whole grain station, where you can enjoy whole grain Barilla-plus pasta, a hot grain such as quinoa, wheatberries or wild rice, and complementing sauces. And we’ve added a number of tasty new entrees, like Vegetarian Loco Moco (a play on a Hawaiian street food), to Curried Chicken with Coconut Milk, Swordfish Tacos and Korean Pork Stir-fry.



And now, by popular demand, we're also featuring soy milk as a regular beverage option.

We’ve also made changes to the bag meal program (don’t forget: order online from the undergraduate section of the website - www.dining.harvard.edu - by 4am for same-day pick-up) in response to your feedback. Bag meals now feature better ingredients, more healthy choices and gluten-free options.

The Make-Your-Own Station this fall is Crepes - both sweet and savory - on Monday nights. Make it your meal or your dessert – or both! – from the ingredients offered, or get creative with dining hall staples.

Finally, we’ll continue to feature some favorite additions from last year:
Fruit bar on Tuesday nights
Pre-made salads on Thursday nights
Bread bar on Sunday nights

We’re looking forward to a great new year!
