The Name:
“Yeah, everyone calls it Mangina. Mangia actually means ‘so eat!’ in Italian.”
The Artwork:
“The Hall next to [Mangia] is always filled with interactive installations and sculpture displays, so people normally eat and go hang out and play around the artwork.”
The Bats:
“A bat once got loose here. The staff locked it in a storage cupboard in the back and opened the window so the bat could fly out in it's own.”
The…Pissing Matches?
“There have been a lot of big social scenes in there, publicized arguments and that kind of thing. There was one time this girl was bullying this other boy and he then wrote this huge Facebook status letting everyone know how rude and obnoxious she was…he walked into Mangia [later] that night and everybody in the room just unanimously stood up and began applauding.”
