Food for Thought. Green Cactus.
So by now you are probably sick of even looking at campus food. Don’t worry, we feel you. But unlike the majority of The Brook, we have been sneaking off across the tracks to grab some Mexican delight. Yes, Green Cactus is overpriced, and the menu is a tad too similar to Blue Agave, but [...]
