Students from NDSU’s Food Production Management class have planned a Mexican fiesta for Tuesday, May 5, from 11:30 a.m. until 12:15 p.m. on the lower level of the West Dining Center.
Students will prepare Mexican Ranch Salad, chicken enchiladas served with Spanish rice and a fresh fruit cup with a delicious chocolate truffle.
Nicole Maas and Larissa Myers, students in the dietetics program, are the managers of the event. “We are very excited for the opportunity to host this meal,” Maas said. “Our meal is different, yet exciting, and we’re hoping that because of the warmer temperatures and the fact that it is Cinco de Mayo, people will be more willing to join our fiesta,” Myers added.
The price of the meal, including a beverage, is $8.35. For anyone not on an NDSU meal plan, cash, check or credit cards will be accepted. People who are on an NDSU meal plan can use Bison Bucks. For reservations, call NDSU Dining Services at 1-7023. Walk-ins are welcome.
West Dining Center is located between the four residence hall towers on campus, just south of Newman Outdoor Field. Visitors may park in the NDSU visitor’s parking lot. Guests can enter the building using the street-level east door.
