GREAT EATS ON CAMPUS
Food. It's how we relax, relate, and reconnect - with ourselves,
and with others.
University Dining Services offers one of the most unique dining
opportunities of any college campus in the United States. We serve
the food and beverage needs of the U of M community with our campus
and residential restaurants, and full service catering department. Our staff is dedicated to providing great customer
service and a variety of quality foods.
Whether you choose to eat in one of our campus restaurants, residential
restaurants, convenience stores or coffee shops, you’ll find
something to suit your taste: soups, salads, vegetables, entrees
and desserts as well as made-to-order delicatessen sandwiches, ethnic
dishes, low-fat and low-carb options and specialty coffees. We serve
our food in facilities where you can relax and eat.
University Dining Services is having a contest to find the best recipe from home. Submit the recipe to dining@umn.edu between November 23, 2009 & December 31, 2009. If your recipe is chosen you could win $50 in FlexDine. Recipes will be featured during Spring Semester in the Residential Restaurants.
