 Café Ramonas, located here in Worcester Hall, was closed down in March to make way for a new cafe called Rice & Bones. It was created by Charles Van. This is the first renovation since 1984 and I'm here to check it out. Inspired by Vietnamese cuisine and his Vietnamese heritage, Charles Van created the cafe with the mission to provide strictly organic and high quality foods to students at his alma mater. We're just kind of doing what we came here to do and bring, you know, the culture of Vietnamese and Chinese food and put a California twist to it and with like urban names to it, you know, but still has the same traditional taste. And everything's so healthy for you. So I don't know where you can go and get such a big fat plate of food and everything on it is so healthy for you. The cafe will work toward the campus zero waste by 2020 goal and emphasizes fresh local produce. All of our utensils, our containers, packaging, it's all compostable. So that just makes me feel a whole lot better in another way, not only as our food, you know, good food, healthy food but we're also at the same time serving it in things that are going to be better for our environment. Most of the vegetables and meats that you see on the countertop are all made in-house. All of our food is locally sourced, organic and well raised. The interior of the restaurant is spacious and modern with the minimalist style furniture and ample seating. Overall, we're enjoying the space. We gutted everything and re-renovated it. And I believe it looks beautiful. Hopefully the students will feel the same way. Fan has agreed to follow the terms of the UC fair wage which guarantees a $15 minimum hourly wage for their workers. The cafe will join a host of others on campus including the Free Speech Movement Cafe and the ASUC Student Union. Reporting for CalTV News, this is Jasmine Galliana.
