For what it is (gussied up cafeteria food that is prepared en masse) it’s just not worth...

This cafeteria is part of the Stanford Graduate School of Business and is apparently where all of the b-school eager beavers refuel on sustenance. 🙂 I particularly appreciated the, oh-so-clever, names that accompanied each of the food stations. 😂 Haha, you can totally tell this is where all of the MBA people hang out! Definitely get lunch here if you're...
