yeah, people are going to say that fountain sucked and it's gross and blah blah blah...but the truth is that it was pretty darn good food when i was there, and sometimes, when i'm over on main campus, i stop in and have lunch and it's pretty damn tasty

10/23/2007 2:04:45 PM

the holiday meal: peel and eat shrimp from a buffet is my favorite way to get diarrhea

10/23/2007 2:22:40 PM

I don't think they had wing day when I was there.

10/23/2007 2:23:06 PM

I don't know about now, but when I used to eat there all the time, it was more like which day was the best pile of shit day.

10/23/2007 2:23:56 PM

Thanksgiving/Christmas ftw

10/23/2007 2:26:13 PM

I miss Fountain.

You can always tell the n00bs there too, because they only have one cup.

10/23/2007 2:26:23 PM

I can count the number of times I ate there on one hand, but one of those times they had a pasta bar thing that was really good.

And by really good I mean adequate.

The popcorn chicken was always tasty.

And it's hard to mess up rib-shaped meat, or sloppy joes.

Sunday brunch was the best all-around though--breakfast was pretty good (the biscuits and gravy were very good actually) and some lunch selections too.

Back in the day, as one of the Sullivan Pyramid smokers, some of us would stay up all night long smoking and playing Tekken. We would last those last few hours on the anticipation of breakfast at Fountain. The only way in hell we ever made it to breakfast was to stay up all night.

10/23/2007 3:03:44 PM

Noodles Jefferson.

10/23/2007 3:13:05 PM

chicken and dumplins...

and free ice cream ftw.

the rest... ftl

10/23/2007 3:18:03 PM

The burgers were always tolerable, and were available all the time, so they were like my old standby.

The Chicken and "dumplings" were the worst I have ever had. It was more like chicken and really thick pieces of pasta instead of the fluffy biscuit like things they are supposed to be.

10/23/2007 3:19:02 PM

Buffalo Bites

^^You siir are an idiot.

10/23/2007 3:21:54 PM

^^^ you must be from the North? Thats the northern version of chicken and dumplings. At least its my northern families interpretation.

10/23/2007 3:55:13 PM

thats Chicken and Pastry....

10/23/2007 4:42:43 PM

up here when people say "chicken and dumplings"

it's followed by a "wet or dry"

I NEVER understood the obsession with popcorn chicken. I thought it was pretty damn disgusting.

That said...after the first month of college, I only went for the hangover breakfast on the weekends.

10/23/2007 4:52:13 PM

dumplings are made with cornmeal, pastry is not

10/23/2007 4:53:20 PM

ICE CREAM FTW

10/23/2007 4:54:05 PM

freshman year.. every day i'd get:
-pasta with marinara
-spinach salad with black olives, carrots, cheese, eggs, no dressing
-whatever fruit they had
-perhaps some ice cream/desert
it was delicious. partly because it's hard to mess those things up.

10/23/2007 5:04:32 PM

so if you dont live on campus or have a meal plan its like 5 dollars and basically an "all you can eat" buffet right?

10/23/2007 5:05:42 PM

PIZZA POCKETS

10/23/2007 5:07:11 PM

10/23/2007 5:15:36 PM

10/23/2007 5:18:29 PM

I love those waffle machine waffles. put some whip cream on them!! yummy

10/23/2007 5:35:30 PM

I think that people bash Fountain because Clark is just newer and has slightly better food/service, but I'll eat at Fountain over most any other food available.

I always put a square of cake in a bowl and cover it with the soft serve ice cream. And those thin cookie/brownie things are always kickass, I take about 4-5 of them with me when I leave.

10/23/2007 6:57:47 PM

i was a major fan of the made-to-order omelets

also, the pesto chicken kabobs, ftw!

10/23/2007 7:09:37 PM

Breakfast was the best.

Was I the only one that noticed a film on ALL the glasses?

I have no idea how they are supposed to be in the north and south, but it's the way my family has always made them.

The dense square dumplings at fountain don't hold a candle to fluffy biscuit style dumplings.

This is the kind of chicken & dumplings I enjoy:

i've never eaten at a dining hall

i prefer the northern dumplings...when i moved to nc my mom told me i wouldnt like the dumplings they have here

10/23/2007 10:01:57 PM

fountain sucks ass.

10/23/2007 10:14:13 PM

the prime rib and chocolate cake @ xmas was always pretty decent. cheese burgers, waffles and made to order omelette's are pretty much impossible to screw up. regardless of what it was it all ended in horrible mud butt. its like your body had to build up a tolerance for it or something, it was always hell the first couple of weeks but got progressively less severe the more you ate there. skip it for a few days and you're back to the liquid shits.

10/23/2007 10:34:01 PM

yeah breakfast is basically the best meal but i said brunch cuz i think it has all the same stuff + a couple lunch options. but theres less people for omelettes at breakfast so it's probably better

10/23/2007 11:12:48 PM

Fried chicken.

PS: And the burgers are better at Clark.

I used to go there just for the ice cream. And no one can tell me that the food wasn't better during orientation when parents were there. It's like they were saying "look, we're not gonna kill your kids with nasty cafeteria food" only to pull the rug out from under us after the rents left.

10/23/2007 11:23:18 PM

orientation > christmas
$$ > big baby jesus

i really didn't feel that way at all. i thought the food at orientation was fine, and i thought the food during the year was fine. i think people just go in w/ that mindset.
