Intermezzo Cafe at Krannert Center

Intermezzo Cafe at Krannert Center I have a serious problem with eating out. Its maybe my favorite way to spend money because Im always hungry (and often hangry). From The Mindy Project/Giphy But Im also a broke college kid, and in light of graduating in a  few months, Ive been trying to eat out less to save money. However, Im still going to be frequenting  Intermezzo Cafe, located inside the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts. Its just a 5-minute walk from the Quad and has a relatively wide selection of sandwiches and other entrees to get you through the day. They serve breakfast, lunch, and sometimes dinner, if theres a performance happening at Krannert that evening. And Fridays? Fridays are Monster Baked Potato day! Unfortunately, I cant find a picture, but just imagine the biggest baked potato youve ever seen, smothered in cheese, bacon, green onions, and sour cream. Their prices are great, and youd be hard-pressed to find food thats as tasty or relatively healthy for less money. The meals I buy there average between $3-$8. Students, faculty, and staff all hang around there during  lunchtime, especially those from the College of Fine + Applied Arts because a lot of their buildings are near Krannert, so its not just me whos a fan of Intermezzo. And if youre coming around for a college visit, youll realize Intermezzo/Krannert is also right by the Admissions and Records Building. If you have a little time to kill, stop at Intermezzo for a caffeine jolt and one of their impressive chocolate muffins. I also highly recommend  their soy sausage sandwich for breakfastâ€"only $2.75! Its served on a whole-wheat English muffin with cheese and grilled peppers and onions. And if you get rid of the cheese, its vegan! Trust me, its good, maybe especially good for fake meat made out of beans. From  The Simpsons/Giphy As always, please feel free to ask me any questions you might have (food-related or otherwise)! Maggie Class of 2017 After starting my time at Illinois Undeclared in the Division of General Studies, I’m majoring in English and Economics with a minor in Informatics from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. I’m from the relatively small town of Manhattan, Illinois.
