Question

Neetu Singh · Answer

It would be a good choice to opt for Lovely Professional University as in the present scenario this is the university which caters to the all-round development of its students and nurtures it with care to boost the career to a pinnacle of ultimate success which might be the envy of many. I am in a better position to answer your question. First of all, my experience at LPU has been phenomenal. Honestly I won't lie about the mess at campus, because I myself took food for the first 6 months at the hostel mess until I explored other good places but there are so many people who actually like mess. If your one of them very good and if not then fab your in my gang so, you don't have to worry at all for the food at LPU because there are like 358+ shops inside the campus providing all varieties of food from continental to south Indian and that too at very mediocre rates. Some days if you don't feel like going out you can even order at Dominoes, go to CCD, Mall, etc. Food is not at all a problem at LPU. More than 20000 students reside in the on-campus hostel and nearly ,15000 avail food service. All the hostel have their own mess facilities. What you get is a planned diet, with salads, protein, vitamins, lentils, etc. No stale food, like the one which you might get in a restaurant, stalls, etc. Every meal is freshly prepared for a hot meal. The food inspector which tends to raid the hostel mess, ensures the workers to provide the optimum hygiene and quality use of products. One after the tiresome day can have a hot meal in a timely manner. Sometimes during some festive day like Diwali, Holi, they surprise you with some different meals and believe me food was really awesome. You are getting unlimited hot Breakfast/Lunch/Snacks and Dinner. Oh my, where will you get that otherwise? It will be light on your pocket as well. To tingle your taste buds, you can always skip meals and eat outside for a change. Hope the information is informative.

The residential facility at LPU is very authentic and genuine. It offers the best residential facilities like 24*7 power supply, Gym, Laundry, Mess, Wi-Fi, etc. With value for money. All residential facilities have dining halls that provide good quality and hygienic food four times a day. Over 1 Lacs meals are prepared each day! I have spent my years at LPU and opted for mess throughout. I must appreciate that LPU takes utmost care of the health and hygiene of students. Food is prepared as per the menu decided by the university. Every meal has a minimum of 4 to 5 items and sometimes even more. The menu is decided considering the healthy and balanced diet of students. Food is tasty and has a complete blend of all the essential nutrients required by the human body. There is a 4-time meal served throughout the day starting from Breakfast, Lunch, Evening Snacks and Dinner. The special menu is also prepared on festive occasions. University also provides the option to choose between Standard Mess and South Indian Mess. The standard mess has a mix of menus from North Indian, South Indian, Chinese and Italian Cuisines. Also, the university keeps a regular check on the quality of food served to the students. There is a surprise visit and checking being done by food inspectors allocated by LPU in the mess. For a student, you get the perfect meal throughout from a glass of milk or tea accompanied with some Paratha or Poha or Idli or Sambar and sometimes even Sprouts. Lunch has a Curry, Rice Chapati, Salad, Curd or Raita, and even fruit sometimes.

Lunch: It has a wide range but few things remain of course we Indian eat almost every day Rice/ steam rice/ flavoured rice, Dal/ Rajma/Dal makhna/Kadhi/moong dal/chana dal/chole, chapati, sweet, salad If the sweet is over you will get a banana. There is a canteen option also if you are tired of the monotonous menu. You can also go outside the hostel in the campus area. There are plenty of stalls in the campus area for food. Most students prefer food in the stall area. You will find the food stalls outside every hostel. The best part is that LPU maintains the quality of food. They inspect the stalls on a regular basis. There is only VEGETARIAN food available inside the campus. If you wish to eat NON-VEG then you can go outside the campus and eat. REMEMBER you are not allowed to bring NON-VEG inside the campus. The guards at the entrance will check your packets. The stalls outside are mostly nonveg. You can also have northeast food there. People from Africa can also get their country dish at the Campus cafe stall area. Lots of food options here.
