The school is very great but we need better food! Here are some examples like traditional food so Burmese food, Japanese food, Mexican food and etc. We would also like you guys to add some sauces to put in our food! I heard some kid got allergies to one of the food so maybe ask them what are they allergic to :) Have a great day
