W: I must say, I love our canteen! It's such a great meeting point!
M: Yeah, it really is, both for students and teachers. Shame about the food.
W: What do you mean? I think the food is fine.
M: I would say the food is just OK, but the prices are absurd. Don't you agree?
W: I don't, actually. I personally think they're perfectly appropriate. If it's overpriced, why does it get so frantically busy at lunchtimes?
M: Hmm, you make a good point. I guess a lot of it is good value, maybe even most of it. However, don't you think 6 bucks for a slice of apple crumble is beyond most students' budgets?
W: Um, yes, desserts are overpriced. I'll give you that. To be honest, I've forgotten about those, as I never eat them. I never really crave sweet things or any fancy delicacies. What I always go for is their scrambled eggs. They have such a great variety.
M: Yeah, those are good. They also come out really fast. Actually, that's one of the best things about the canteen — the speed. If I fancy something more substantial than a sandwich, but I don't have much time for lunch, the university canteen is always a good option. The kitchen staff work at such a brisk pace. They really deserve to be complimented for it.
W: Totally, and it's such a great environment too. Like the entire building is beautiful.
M: It is very nice.
W: The massive glass windows make all the difference. I think they're so cool. Apparently, they did a massive renovation a few years ago. It cost them a pretty penny.
M: Yeah, I'm not surprised. It's a very versatile space, suitable both for eating and relaxing.
W: And for working.
M: You're right, working too. I've used my laptop there once or twice. And there's always a group project or meeting going on at the far end.
