Granville
The moment I stepped into Lake Avenue’s Granville, the modern restaurant offered a warm and inviting atmosphere that relieved the stress of school exams. Embellished with soft lighting and cozy seating, the modern interior is beautifully enhanced. As I perused the menu, I noticed the impressive variety of mouthwatering dishes, including vibrant salads, poké, and juicy burgers. Granville’s tuna sesame soba contains perfectly seared tuna steak with a delicate soy glaze that rests atop a bed of nutty, al dente soba noodles. Eating at Granville let me unwind after block day exams. Although this sit-down restaurant is not a top pick for students during normal lunch periods, the two-hour break during block week allows time for the weight of exam stress to dissipate and gives students the opportunity to rejuvenate with sweet potato fries and veggie churrasco flatbread.
