An article entitled "Reflections From the Lunch Line" in the Nov. 30 edition of the Kirkland House Logos has strongly attacked the quality of Contral Kitchen food. "One habitually expects the quality of the meals to decline toward the end of the school year," the article says. "However, May-type meals in November is not an encouraging sign."

The Logos story specifically deplores the meals served on Friday and Saturday. It says the option of most or fish on Friday "seems to have almost disappeared. To be sure, there was a choice last Friday night; but it was between two types of fish, both equally unpalatable to the majority."

"It seems reasonable to expect the Central Kitchen at least to provide good meals on weekends when guests are present," the article continues. "Regrettably, Friday and Saturday meals have been among the worst. As a result, bringing a guest here to dinner is all too often an embarrassing experience."

The demise of the Friday meat-fish option could be overlooked "if well prepared meat meals were served on the other six days of the week," the story says. "Unfortunately, the current trend has been toward excessive amounts of bread and potatoes in an unsuccessful attempt to compensate for the inferior main dish."

In conclusion, Logos asserts, "No one expects a Thanksgiving feast every day of the week. However, for $620 a year a person does expect better meals than have been customary this fall, even from an organization as inefficient as the Central Kitchen."
