Did someone say National Dessert Day!? 🤯🍰🧁🍪 Join us in recognizing Pastry Sous Chef, Tyshianna!

Tyshianna’s journey in the culinary world began in 2019 when she joined the UChicago Dining team as a commissary utility worker. It wasn’t until 2021 that she took a serious interest in baking despite her love for cooking since the age of 13. In 2023, she turned her passion into a business & founded “Ty’s Tasty Treats”.

She dreams of one day becoming an executive chef & eventually owning her own bakery, combining her skills & passion for creating delightful pastries!

We can’t wait to see the goodies she baked up at Woodlawn Dining Commons. 🤭 Enjoy some sweet treats from 11:30AM-2:30PM today! 🍩 taken in Woodlawn Commons by @uchicagodining

It’s officially coffee o’clock ☕️ which means it’s time for rewards!

Head over to any of our five participating locations on campus and ask a cashier how to join the Coffee Club. If you’re already ordering your daily fix, you might as well reap the benefits 😉

Are you more of a drip, cold brew, tea or latte person? 🫖 Either way, this card is for you. Cast your vote below 👇 & happy sipping! taken in The University of Chicago by @uchicagodining
