FUSION 54

Fusion 54 is your friendly neighborhood café that somehow made the university food scene decent. Their peri2 chicken sandwich and sweet chili sandwich are like a hug for your taste buds, while the Chicken Pad Thai on Thursdays could probably win a culinary award if anyone bothered to check. Staff like Mariia and her crew serve with smiles, even when the lunchtime rush turns the place into a bit of a feeding frenzy. Let's be real, it’s cheap, cheerful, and a solid option if you’re near the Natural History Museum and want something that won't leave your wallet crying.

But don’t get too comfy; it’s a bit of a mixed bag. Eemeli’s right—the menu could use a little more pizzazz. And while Ed was heartbroken over the closure of their original spot, we’re still grateful for this hidden gem. It’s not winning Michelin stars anytime soon, but it’s definitely not a culinary crime either. Just don’t expect to be blown away; it’s good for a quick bite.
