Dining Services
This is to inform you that, effective June 1st, there will be a change in the dining operations at Chequers (located on the bottom level in the School of Medicine Instructional Building) and Chequers Express (adjacent to the 1st floor reception area in the School of Dental Medicine). For the past 11 years, Chequers and Chequers Express have been managed by Boston University Dining Services. Recently, as a result of an evaluation as to how we could best meet our objective to expand and further enhance the dining offerings for the Medical Campus community, we invited Mr. Manny Sarkis, the owner/operator of El-Misk, a local restaurant located at 714 Commonwealth Avenue, to assume management of Chequers/Chequers Express. El-Misk is frequented and is well received by many Charles River Campus faculty, staff and students. We are confident that Manny’s cuisine will be appreciated and enjoyed by faculty, staff and students on the Medical Campus, as well. Manny will be working with Alice Moore, current Chequers/Chequers Express manager, and her staff over the next several weeks to effect a smooth transition. Manny will continue to offer most of the existing menu (and the existing prices), as well as introducing a number of Middle Eastern offerings. Boston University Dining Services will continue to provide catering services for major functions at Boston University Medical Campus to supplement the catering services offered by Manny. Boston University Dining Services (Catering Department) can be contacted at 353-2957. We acknowledge and thank Alice Moore, a valued Boston University Dining Services employee, for the excellent job she has done overseeing Chequers and Chequers Express since November of last year, and we wish her well, as she takes on a new assignment for Boston University Dining Services.
