    Miami Dade College has a culinary arts school on their campus that has their own cafeteria that serves food that the students make. There is also the outside I go to and I think that their food is a six out of ten because their afternoon menu has relatively exotic food that taste pretty good. I like their steak, with fried bananas and plantains chips (green banana chips that are fried).

    Food is a tad bit expensive but that is in all colleges and universities. There are restaurants near by all you would have to do is GPS restaurants and you will find a place quickly.

    I attend the Wolfson campus and it's a great area for students who are hungry. Many restaurants and fast food places are available within walking distance.

    MDC-Wolfson has three Greek organizations PHI BETA LAMDA, PHI THETA KAPPA and PSI BETA. PHI BETA LAMDA focuses primarily on Business majors, but seeks out other majors as well. PHI THETA KAPPA focuses mostly on Honor students and PSI BETA deals only with Psychological majors.
