Breakfast will be provided at the hotel. Lunch for Wednesday-Friday will be provided at the university’s restaurants. There will be a social dinner on Wednesday evening. For the other meals, there are quite a few restaurants at walking distance, in Orsay or Bures sur Yvette. If you like Vietnamese, Asia is close to the hotel and a good pick.
