Do we really want Chef Joann cooking in the kitchen at Dewick Mac-Phie Dining Center today?  It looks like she's a little preoccupied at the moment.  Don't mind Eric, he's just trying to be helpful.

Sometimes, we like to spice up dishes to add flavor. Other times, we like to switch up people to spice things up, so new faces, the same faces in new places, and new teams are nothing to be surprised about at Tufts Dining. In fact, new flavor is often what it's all about for those of us foodies.  Are there ever too many cooks in our kitchens? Probably not!

"Debunking the common perceptions of cafeterias in general, the colleges on this list are being recognized for going the extra mile to provide nutrient rich and delicious food to all their students regardless of their diet."

Have you ever wondered what goes on behind the doors of the Tufts Dining kitchens? Do you think about who chops those veggies in your salad or makes the delicious soups? We've answered all these questions and more in this behind-the-scenes video tour of the kitchens. Meet our amazing crew and see what it takes to get food on your plate. 

If you frequent Dewick, odds are you’ve noticed the lively music streaming through the dining center. From alternative Jumbo favorites The Strokes and The Arcade Fire to holiday music and jazz, the tunes in Dewick have been a welcomed addition during meal times. The music came about as a request from Chef Joann after a themed dinner in which the dining staff wanted to play music but could only do so through an “awkward” boom box placed under the carving station,  She asked for the wireless speakers that now play tunes from XM Radio. Though Chef Joann may have made the request, it’s Jeff, Dewick’s Service Manager, who’s now our resident DJ. He also replies to the comments at Dewick, so if you have a special musical request, make sure to write him a note!

Thanks WMFO for the tweet about the music!
