A “Caribbean Cruise” lunch will be served at the 800 Café in the Family Life Center, room 312, on Tuesday, April 12, and Thursday, April 14. Seating will be from 11 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.

The meal will begin with a Mexican-style summer squash soup topped with diced red peppers. The main dish is a Caribbean salad with strips of tender chicken breasts, fresh cucumbers, radishes, red peppers, tomatoes, mandarin oranges and pineapple on a bed of crisp spinach and romaine lettuce. This will be served with homemade mango salsa, honey Dijon dressing and a side of tomato toast. Dessert will follow with a juicy bowl of mixed fruit and cinnamon yogurt dip. "Caribbean Cruise" is hosted by dietetics students and managed by Amy Hutchinson and Kayla Bahtiraj.

The dining experience is $7 per meal. Three-meal punch cards also are available for $20. Payment can be made by cash or check.

Parking is available in the visitor lot on campus. Walk-ins are welcome, but reservations are preferred because seating is limited.
