Not only intellectual food is on the menu at the University of Graz. Whether you have a small or larger appetite - every stomach and taste bud is catered for on campus. The current winter semester brought two new additions to the culinary scene. The "Milchstandl", which retired in the summer after 27 years, has found a successor in the form of "Uni Bites". And "KF erde" recently moved into the RESOWI cafeteria.

On the outside, the black food truck with the name "Uni Bites" doesn't have much in common with the former "Milchstandl", where several generations of students used to get their morning snacks, fruit and sweets. But sausage and cheese rolls and all sorts of other things, even milk, are also available there in front of the RESOWI. From Monday to Friday from 7am. The "Uni Bites" offer also includes waffles and toast as well as a meat and a vegan dish from Monday to Friday lunchtime. If you want to take the food away with you, you can do so in your own containers or get reusable boxes. The food truck is operated by caterer The Underground Kitchen.

The "KF erde", which has opened on the first floor of the RESOWI centre as the second location of the "café erde" on Andreas-Hofer-Platz in Graz, is exclusively vegan. In addition to sandwiches, wraps and pastries, two daily specials and a salad buffet are available from Monday to Friday. It is advisable to book a table at lunchtime. Food is also available to go. In addition, students and employees of the University of Graz will find an very practical facility in the "KF erde": They can also heat up their own food in a microwave. Open from 8 am to 3 pm.
