At Saint Louis University, we make it a priority that all students have a great experience dining on campus. From our general manager to our front-line servers, we work carefully to address food allergies, celiac diets, or other special dietary needs. Plus SLU offers vegetarian, vegan, Halal options across campus. See what our DineSLU staff is doing every day to make sure anyone who has individual dining needs has a safe and delicious dining experience.Video TranscriptMyron Bridges/DineSLU: [00:00:02] We take allergies with the utmost of seriousness.Jon Klipp/Executive Chef: [00:00:06] We send all our frontline chefs into a training program that is focused on our eight major allergens at our station and simple servings.Myron Bridges/DineSLU: [00:00:15] They go through intense training to make sure that they're able to provide the needs of the allergies and things that are needed and be able to coach the rest of the staff.Katelyn Ryder/Dietician: [00:00:28] Everyone might at some point in their life have a need for a special diet. And so it's just good to know that we have the resources and we help you navigate what that might look like. We have a great map that we put together that identifies where are the vegan and vegetarian options, where are the gluten-free options. I feel like we can help students navigate a wide variety of foods all around campus.Myron Bridges/DineSLU: [00:00:55] Our goal is to not have a student go hungry and or have dining services as a negative part of the college experience. A lot of things are just a conversation away from making it as close to home as possible.About SLUFounded in 1818, Saint Louis University is one of the nation’s oldest and most prestigious Catholic institutions.
