The Grilled Cheese of My Dreams

The Grilled Cheese of My Dreams For those of you who visit  this blog regularly, I’m sure you’ve gathered by now that I’m a bit of a foodie. A well-planned meal is often the light at the end of the tunnel for me, and this week has already been particularly stressful, so I really needed a mood lift. I often check the dining hall app on my phone ahead of time to see what each location is serving, just so I know what to look forward to. A personal favorite is the “Make Your Own Grilled Cheese Bar” on Tuesdays at the Ikenberry Dining Hall, also known as the Ike. The entire process takes about 5 minutes. You can pick the type of bread, cheese, and toppings you like, and then it’s prepared for you. There are a ton of options, but I always opt for the classic; white bread with cheddar cheese. My friend, who’s a bit more adventurous, added Swiss cheese and bacon to hers. I like to pair my grilled cheese with tomato soup and a yogurt parfait. Now let me tell you about this grilled cheese. It’s no ordinary sandwich. The surface of the bread is crisped to perfection a satisfactory golden brown. And when you pull the sandwich apart, you can see how the melted cheese has the perfect texture. The bread to cheese ratio is spot on, and overall, makes for the ultimate dining hall grilled cheese experience. It literally makes my day. gif from tumblr So for all you grilled cheese connoisseurs out there, the Ike is the place to be on Tuesdays. Chances are, you’ll see me there.
