Hello,
I am working on my application to Toronto and have a question concerning
Innis College. I notice that it is not mandatory to have a meal plan at any
one of the Innis residences. Can I still get a meal plan if I go to Innis?

As a matter of fact, you can, but not through Innis College or Innis Residence itself. As a matter of fact, I lived at Innis residence last year and I got a meal plan from CampusDish. Check out the meal plan brochure. There are two kinds of meal plans available: declining balance meal plans and all-you-can-eat meal plans.
You know what though? I didn?t actually use up all my money from last year?s meal plan (I bought a $500 meal plan.) In fact there?s not a lot of places at which you can use the declining meal plan?the only major ones that come to my mind are MegaBytes at the Bahen Centre, Sid?s Caf?, and the Subway up at Robarts. The variety isn?t great, to say the least, and you’ll getting Subway two days. Personally, I don’t think their meal plans are worth buying. If I were you I’d buy food on the campus caf??s with cash. That way, you’d have the option of going to Chinatown during your 4-hour breaks for Sushi or Thai food or Vietnamese food, instead of dry sandwiches/pizza. The restaurants on Bloor Street are also good choices.
Also, since you’re going to be living at Innis, it would be a perfect time for you to start to learn how to cook.
