The Perfect Storm

Have you ever just had one of those No Good Very Bad Terrible Days?  Well today is definetly one of those days.  Actually I think I figured out a new word to describe it:  The Perfect Storm.  Yes, I am stealing these titles from other authors/movies but if the name fits...right?  We have had some complaints recently concerning different areas of  Dining Services running out of products.  I would like to personally apologize to you.  We have had some department restructuring and in the process a few things have really slipped through the cracks.  We are most definetly learning from our mistakes and things really should start looking up on Monday.  Wow, never thought I would look forward to a Monday, did you?  I want to say thank you to all of you who actually visit our site.  I love each and every comment, even the negative ones so please keep them coming!

Mardi Gras

It's Fat Tuesday and that means Mardi Gras!  Being Utah and all we don't have any crazy floats or parades, but we can celebrate with some yummy Southern food.  Stop in today for Cajun Chicken Pasta, Jambalaya, or Chicken Gumbo.  I know what I'm having for lunch and dinner, how about you?

New Microwave

All of your prayers have been anwered, not really, but we do have a brand new microwave for your use.  We even remembered to buy some new food covers so it can stay nice and clean for you.  Hope your food tastes great and your day goes well.  The weekend is just around the corner.

Microwave Drama

We would like to apologize for our microwaves.  They have not been working very well in the last week or so.  After having UVU Electrical come check them out we have decided to buy a new microwave for the north wall.  Hopefully it will be here soon and you can keep using them as needed. 

Resolution follow-up

Well, with all other resolutions this one is having a hard time sticking.  We are checking this page more often, and now have two people working on keeping the calendar up to date.  Our current goal is to get our menus out monthly instead of weekly.  Not quite sure how easy this leap will be but we are for sure going to take the lunge. 

I want to personally thank everyone who is posting their questions and comments on our new comment page.  We get excited for each new post be it good or bad.  You will notice that we have purposefully left the previous comments so you can read and know what has been happening around the Valley View.  Please keep it up, we can not progress without your input.  Hope everyone has a great day and drives safe on our slippery roads.

New Year New Resolution

It has been a long cold winter, and I for one can't wait for the warmth and color of Spring to come around again.  I owe everyone an apology as I have completely fallen down on the job when it comes to the Valley View Blog.  So, to make it up to you, because I knew you were really worried about it, my New Year's Resolution for 2013 is:  Keep you up to date with the happenings in UVU Dining Services -mainly the Valley View ;o)  and blog at least once a week.  As always you can check out our Menu as that is updated weekly.  Feel free to post any requests, concerns, or comments along the way.  We are working with our Chef's to get recipes more often and a complete list of our nutritional information for all recipes served here in the Valley View.
