Yes, that's right. I finally visited all dining halls at NYU. And it took me a year to make this video. I'm surprised I even finished it, honestly. You can take this as a Valentine's Day special LOL... jk

IMPORTANT NOTES:
0. This video is based on the Spring 2022 semester. Given how frequently NYU's diningrelated things seem to change, the information in this video is bound to change. I guess the differences will be fun to note in the future.
1. With the exception of Third North, Cluckstein, 18 Below, and UHall Commons Café, this was shot back in spring of freshman year. You can tell by the different rooms I'm in. If you see the door, it was recorded in freshman year. If you can see the window, it was recorded in sophomore year.
2. I decided to include footage from freshman year because I already recorded so much of it that it didn't seem realistic to visit all of them again in sophomore year. Plus, I was planning on releasing this video in freshman year anyway, but the reason why I pushed it to sophomore year was that I wanted to wait until the closed locations opened back up again.
3. When I said Downstein had the longest operating times and that Palladium was the furthest dorm, I meant within the Manhattan campus. Including Brooklyn, then obviously Jasper Kane is the furthest and also operates the longest (see bottom).
4. Meal swipes and dining dollars are included in NYU's Meal Plans. Meal swipes are essentially the number of meals you can get from these dining halls and other locations. (ex. 225/semester). Dining dollars are additional money you can spend at dining halls and other eating locations. (ex. $200/semester).
5. There was apparently a dining hall at Rubin Hall, a freshman dorm. This dining hall closed in 2013. I didn't include this in the video because it seemed irrelevant (and there was nowhere to put this info). Here's an article you can check out: https://nyulocal.com/nyuisclosingr...
6. If you're wondering what my ranking of these dining halls are, it's too hard to rank them one by one. But I'd put 18 Below on top, then the rest of Retail Dining + Jasper Kane, and then Residential Dining (obviously). I can't consider NYU Dentistry because all I had was a prepackaged sandwich and juice.
