This is my favorite food joint at the hub so far. It's mostly soups and salads, with a few premade sandwiches and desserts in a refrigerated case i think (probably the same stuff that they have at the Etc). They have a good variety of soups generally 5-6 each day. So far I've had the chicken noodle, the corn chowder, the potato, and the split pea with ham. Everything has been good (chicken noodle wasn't my fav). And getting the bread bowl w/ soup is super economical. It's five bucks, and just that by itself is very filling. I have a pretty limited salad range, being that I like Caesar salad ... and nothing else really. But they have a nice little salad mixing station, where they can make you a fresh tossed caesar salad, you don't have to put any of the ingredients together or anything. It's five bucks, and pretty big. and an extra buck gets you chicken, though I haven't gone for the chicken yet cause I think cold chicken in salads is kinda ewey. It would be nice if they had a smaller option for like, $2.50 or so, so that you could do a large soup/bread bowl with soup and a small salad for under 8 bucks. I mentioned it a couple times, but oh well. Be warned, get there later in the day and they might be out of bread bowls.
For the variety of options that the hub has, most of what I have tried there has been pretty bad (pasta place, asian firecracker or whatever its called). But this place is affordable, tasty, and one of the healthier options available.
But can anyone tell me why the hell there's a banh mi/curry stand (wtf?), but no g!@#$%n Mexican? College students = burritos and tacos, what did they miss here. read more
