The Talley Student Union received a warm welcome from the N.C. State community Monday when the building’s newest addition opened, kicking off a week-long celebration.

With the opening of One Earth World Cuisine, the newest dining option at Talley Student Union, N.C. State students should expect new dishes and fresher, healthier food, along with another Port City Java.

Some students, such as Owen Hammer, a junior in computer science, said they were impressed by One Earth even though they expected the food to be average at best.

“I was not expecting that,” Hammer said. “I thought it would be mediocre, but it was actually pretty good. It surprised me.”

Hammer, who said he eats at Tuffy’s Diner regularly, said he decided to try One Earth World Cuisine because of the building’s aesthetic appeal.

Unlike the plastics used at other vendors, Hammer said he likes that the One Earth plates are biodegradable.  Read more.
