At one point or another, most students complain about dining on campus. After all, spending nearly four years eating at the same places, with the same familiar faces, can get a bit repetitive. But at Hamilton, the cure for food boredom is simple — creativity. If you’re eating pizza and burgers five days a week, it’s probably time to try something different, such as the seven-layer tortilla pie, a honey mustard salad with grilled chicken, or a toasted bagel with cream cheese and lox. With a half-dozen places to eat on campus and an endless number of food combinations, students at Hamilton really don’t have too much to complain about … well, except maybe for the sushi line.
Considering that a sushi bar — with its assortment of fresh vegetables and seafood— even exists on campus, I really can’t complain about the wait. Sushi is just one of the many creative food options from which students choose. Each night in Commons a food station features a different theme. Some of the best were a taco-and-nacho bar, bananas foster night,make-your-own s’mores and a Mediterranean food night, complete with humus, baba ghanoush and a huge feta salad.
