Things to Know

Apart from the standard appliances necessary to cook (and some extras like a pasta maker and an ice cream maker), the kitchen is stocked with various accessory ingredients. While the quantities of these vary over time, typically you can find some flour, spices, sugar, food coloring, sprinkles and more.  You may keep food in the fridge; however, we ask that you label the food with your name and date, and that you remove the food within a week. If you are ever curious about what is in stock in the kitchen you can always reach out to the kitchen managers!

Reservations account for an hour gap between each event, to allow extra time at the end of each reservation to ensure the kitchen is left clean. You may only reserve the kitchen 1 day per week. It is okay to book two 1 hour sessions consecutively, but please contact the student kitchen managers if you are looking to book 3 or more consecutive slots or reserve the kitchen more than one day in a particular week. Reservations must be made at least 12 hours in advance.

Additionally, they are in charge of any special programming in the kitchen. If you have an idea for or would like to lead an event in the kitchen, please reach out to Marc Levenson
