...Annenberg Hall, Elizabeth R. Moroney ’12, sampled dried fruit and pound cake, calling the food “absolutely delicious.” “We should have this every week,” she added, before heading back for another piece of crispy French toast with glazed apples. While the reading period brunch was designed to give students a chance to relax and recharge, HUDS is also implementing more lasting changes for the next 10 weeks as it transitions to the winter menu. The seasonal dining changes—made three...
