Atrium will close December 10 to make final preparations for spring opening
November 17, 2010 (Raleigh, NC)— NC State Dining is pleased to announce the new venues that will join Chick-fil-A in the Atrium Food Court on January 10, 2011. The food court has been under renovation since June 2010.
“We put a lot of research and thought into what should be offered in the Atrium,” said Randy Lait, director of NC State Dining, “and many months creating the menu and testing the items. Students, faculty and staff will be very pleased with the quality as well as the variety of choices.”
Delirious: A delightful play on the word “deli,” Delirious will offer diners the ability to add their own toppings, then have the attendant add the greens and dressing of choice for a custom tossed salad. Diners can also chose from a selection of wraps, plus a wrap-of-the-day. Selections will include grilled chicken Caesar, turkey club wrap, ham & cheese wrap, vegetarian spinach wrap, vegetarian wheat wrap, BBQ chicken wrap, and BLT wrap.
Zen Blossom: Fresh-rolled sushi (California roll, Hawaiian roll and tekka maki roll), Asian salads, vegetable egg rolls, rice, fried rice, noodles, and a rotating menu of appetizing wok creations, including beef & broccoli, sesame chicken, sweet & sour chicken, dragonfire beef, zesty pork, General Tso chicken, sweet chili shrimp, and vegetable lo mein.
Brickyard Pizza and Pasta: A wide selection of personal pizzas, breadsticks, and garlic toast, plus a rotating menu of tasty pasta dishes. Pizzas include: pepperoni, cheese, meat lovers’, veggie, and supreme. Rotating pasta dishes include chicken Alfredo, baked ziti, cheese ziti, chicken with mushroom ravioli and vodka cream sauce, tortellini with sausage and smoked gouda sauce, and chicken cacciatore. Breadsticks and garlic toast will also be offered.
Wolfpack-to-Go: Look for a wide variety of pre-packaged fresh items: sandwiches, salads, pitas, wraps, parfaits and other items for when you are on the go but still want something great. These items are made with minimal condiments so they can be dressed according to the diner’s taste.
The new Chick-fil-A will be twice the size of its old location and will now add the spicy chicken sandwich to its lineup.
The Atrium Food Court is scheduled to open January 10, 2010 provided inspections go as planned. “We expect to be ready before Christmas, but the final inspections will not come until January 4. Provided all goes well, we will open for breakfast January 10.”
A VIP preview event is planned for January 9, a treat for lucky recipients who win a golden ticket by purchasing Coke products in campus C-Stores beginning November 18.
Diners will continue to take their food to the Brickyard Bubble while the seating area is renovated during Spring 2011. The seating area will be completed by the beginning of the fall semester of 2011.
