Grab lunch, dinner, & everything in between

Efrain (Primo) Cornier of Dining Services keeps the soup supply fresh at Hillside Café.

n recent months, Dining Services in partnership with ARAMARK Corporation has introduced new locations and menus at the University to make it more convenient--not to mention appetizing--for employees to pick up a morning espresso or to-go lunch.

"Dining Services is dedicated to making the dining experience at the University a pleasant one for everyone," says Brad Bingaman, the new director. "Our staff has been working extremely hard over the past summer months to renovate and improve all the dining facilities."

One of the newest changes is the addition of Club Express, located on the third floor of Wilson Commons. Open from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., this buffet service, formerly known as Meliora Express, features hot gourmet items from the Meliora restaurant as well as a specialty salad and sandwich bar.

Also new this fall is Hillside Café in Susan B. Anthony Hall. Offering Java City specialty drinks, smoothies, made-to-order breakfast items as well as soup, sandwiches, and snacks, the café is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and during evenings and weekends.

Mike Stawicki, marketing program manager for ARAMARK, invites faculty and staff to check out the new Hillside Café during the grand opening celebration on October 2, at 4 p.m.

"There will be giveaways, samples, coupons, and more," says Stawicki. "We are very excited to introduce this new and convenient dining option to faculty and staff. It's one of many ways we'll be targeting our services in the coming year to those who work at the University."
