University restaurants: Cheap counts, not quality

  • Restaurant Name: University restaurants

    University Restaurants/Cafetarias
    They are only open on weekdays and usually closed on fridays as well. Prices range from 4 to 10 euros for a meal. Discount is usually only given to people holding an ID card for the University the restaurant belongs to. Cafetarias are closed during the breaks eg summer and christmas.

    Favorite Dish: Nothing is really good, but not necessaraly bad AND it is cheap! Ask for the daily special, cheap and at least fresh, sometimes it's the only thing they have!

  • Haring (fish) is a tradional delicatesse, this is how you are supposed to eat it. But hey, my friend and I are faking it. I defenitely do not like haring myself

    Favorite Dish: You can eat it at the stands on the markets or just out on the streets.

  • Pasta e Basta!/ Pasta Diva. At this restaurant the staff is multitalented not only do they serve you well, but they are talented singers! In between serving they perform in different styles: classical, pop, musical and more. It is great!!
    You can request a serenade for your loved one (best if done while pretending you're going to powder your nose). Romance guaranteed :-)

    Last time I went it wasn't so nice anymore, and very quiet, maybe good to take a look beforehand and see how you like it.
