Friday evening the Davenport Dive was filled with the sounds of my questionable DJ-ing and the aroma of delicious food from all over New Haven as Spoon University – Yale brought you our first event: our launch party! Attendees bought tickets and exchanged them for a bite of an old favorite or a newly discovered dish. Everyone who came left with a full stomach, a boy-band song stuck in their head and the knowledge of how great Spoon University will be for Yale. Thanks to everyone who joined us and a big thank you to all of the restaurants that provided us with food:
