Students eating at restaurant, ‘At Thai’, last night were disrupted when pieces of the ceiling collapsed on top of them and their food.
A number of students were attending a rowing crew date there when plaster and small pieces of ceiling crumbled and collapsed above them.
The Thai restaurant, located on the high street, is often a popular choice for crew dates.
A first year historian from Balliol, who was at the crew date, told Cherwell, “It was really unexpected, one minute everything was normal and the next all my friends were covered in white dust. At Thai weren’t great about it either; they relocated us but were really fussy about giving us a discount or anything, which you’d expect after something like that.”
No one was injured and some continued their crew date to a night club.
At Thai were unavailable for comment.
