When you join the Society of Journalism Refugees, the University of Tampa confirms the existence of a secret ritzy upscale super-delicious gourmet cafeteria on its campus.
Usually, Tampa Tribune reporters in search of a decent lunch make the trek across Kennedy Boulevard head toward the large UT cafeteria in the Vaughn Center, a cacophonous, cavernous hall where the food is plentiful, but it's noisy, the lines can be long, noise is an issue, and — what was that? I'm sorry. I can't hear you. Can you repeat that? You'll have to speak up. Oh, did I mention the noise problem?
No one ever tells the journalists that they're just a few steps away from a second cafeteria with better food, no lines, no noise — and a host of friendly employees tending to your table and clearing your plates.
Here are a few pictures I took:

No journalists here!

Freshly made pastries.
I think I'm going to enjoy being a member of the Society of Journalism Refugees. The perks are delicious.

I am well aware of Panache.
But since I don't get paid what a PriceWaterhouse Coopers employee gets paid, I'll have to stick to the buffet.
