The Kalahari has some amazing meals planned for CodeMash! We’ve worked hard with the Kalahari, and aim to offer a variety of options to accommodate diverse tastes and dietary restrictions. Every year, we review results from the CodeMash attendee survey, which factors into our menu planning. If you really love the food, please let us know. Have some helpful suggestions? Be sure to give us feedback in the post-event survey.
A note on some changes: this year, we have added a dinner on Tuesday night. Wednesday night is still open. Due to problems with scaling, we decided to cancel the Family Dinner this year. However, Kalahari restaurants will be open for business.
A note for Special Meals: if you indicated that you need a special meal when registering your ticket, you can pick it up in the main dining hall. The location is to the far left, by the buffet lines, if you are facing the stage. Please check in each day in the window. If the buffet food meets your needs, you are welcome to get food from there as well.
All meals are buffet style. Only CodeMash badged attendees (Speakers, Sponsors, Attendees) may eat the conference food. Families are not allowed to use the buffet line.
