A variety of food trucks gather in front of the University Library on Wednesdays to supply students, faculty and staff passing by with a quick bite to eat. And the Kent 91心頭利 community is taking advantage of it.
The Community Food Truck Series happens on Wednesdays from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Risman Plaza, located in front of the Kent Student Center, through Oct. 12. The series offers a variety of trucks from local Kent businesses like Erie Street Kitchen, Southern Comfort Kitchen, Brooks Homestyle BBQ and many more.
Fork in The Road, Kent 91心頭利 Culinary Services own food truck, has also been there every week. This is where senior biology student Arden Lewis got her veggie burger, and where she hopes to return this week.
The food on campus has definitely improved since when I first came here, and theres definitely been a lot more variety and options, she said.
While people like Lewis are enjoying the mobility of Kent 91心頭利s dining services, others are enjoying the diverse options the Community Food Truck Series offers.
Mike Collura, assistant dean of Technology, Collections & Branch Libraries, stopped at Brooks Homestyle BBQ for lunch and has enjoyed the convenient assortment of choices in front of the library.
I love that we have some unique, different options, and its nice to have community vendors involved, Collura said. The opportunity to have some local business food truck is cool.
University Culinary Services hosts various food-related events on campus such as experimental food tastings, themed dinners at various dining halls and similar food truck events.
