A Guide To Dining At NYU

College food isn't necessarily ALL bad...

A Guide To Dining At NYU
Shaken Golynnwood

At NYU, there are 16 dining locations which leaves students with plenty of options for meals, snacks, and even groceries. As a disclaimer, I have to mention that I have not had the chance yet to try all of the dining halls, but from the places I’ve been so far, these are some of the highlights for me.

Market Place at Kimmel

The dining hall in Kimmel has many amazing options. The possibilities for sandwiches, burritos, and more are endless. The food is pretty great, but possibly the best part of Kimmel is the view.

Lipton

Without a doubt, Lipton has some of the best options for lunch and dinner. Even though it can take a pretty long time to find a seat (warning: it is pretty packed by prime lunch time, at about 12:30), the daily soups, custom sandwiches, delicious desserts and the ice cream bar make the wait well worth it as long as you aren’t in a rush to get to class.

NYU’s newest dining location is located beneath the Torch Club, a restaurant specifically for alumni. When you first walk in, it seems to be a pretty fancy setting with the linen napkins and tablecloths. If you send a snap of your perfectly plated salad when eating lunch here, your friends will definitely be jealous.

Peet's Coffee

The convenience of using dining dollars to buy a quick snack make this place great for getting something when you’re in a rush. Also, the doughnut is possibly the best one out there. This is another essential for either grabbing a quick snack to eat or picking up some much-needed coffee.

Sidestein

In what is essentially the “supermarket” of NYU, at least for most freshmen on campus, there are limitless options. One thing is for sure if there were ever a storm, you would be set with an endless supply of chips, easy mac, and candy. Anything you could imagine is in Sidestein.

Off-Campus

Because NYU is a school in and of the city, you can’t limit yourself to the dining halls and should try new places once in a while. With places like Sweetgreen, Insomnia Cookies, By Chloe and so many others, it’s important to vary up your meals and try out the amazing places in Greenwich Village and in New York City in general.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
