It’s our last day running the food trailer for the year, so we’ve brought back a favourite — the classic Mexican bowl! It was created by some of our 400-level students a few years back and heaps of people have said how much they love it.
We’ll be closed for the rest of the year, but we’ll be back next year! Thank you to everyone who visited us and has been our regulars since the start of the semester, we’ll miss you 💛
We’ll keep you updated if we end up doing any events in the second semester!!
