KNOXVILLE — Italian, Russian and French fare will be among the choices at the Ready for the World Cafe March 10-12.
The menu, designed by students Daniel Knopf and Aaron Swersky, will include pear and cucumber salad with balsamic vinegar and shaved Romano cheese; chicken Calabrese; beef stroganoff; cheddar cheese mashed potatoes; roasted winter vegetables; cod Dijonnaise; tomato, basil and cheese baked pasta; and assorted desserts.
The cafe — an international buffet — is operated by students in the advanced food production and service management class. ARAMARK prepares the food.
The cafe is open from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. each Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday in the Hermitage Room on the third floor of the University Center.
The cafe menu changes weekly.
Diners pay $10 for the all-you-can-eat buffet or $8.50 for a plate of food to carry out.
The goal of Ready for the World is to transform the campus into a culture of diversity that best prepares students for working and competing in the 21st century. The initiative involves increasing the diversity among students, faculty and staff; infusing the curriculum with international and intercultural content; expanding study-abroad and work-study opportunities; and encouraging students to take advantage of all of these opportunities.
