<p>Where's your favorite place to eat on campus? Is there a meal that's exceptionally good at your school?</p>
<p>My school only has a bunch of restaurants put together (BK, Papa Johns, etc.). There are a few restaurants specific to the school, one of them being a deli that’s like an up-scale version of Subway. The lines are always REALLY long (campus is over 40k students), but I found out that the deli has a sort-of secret back entrance where you can get really cheap bagel sandwiches. I live off of those things.</p>
<p>There’s this crazy good Thai place near campus that has this stuff called seafood tom yum soup. It’s like a spicy citrus broth with shrimp, calamari, scallops, scallions, red peppers, and onions and it’s so amazingly good and I’ve never seen it anywhere else.</p>
<p>Of the chains: Jimmy John’s, Wingstop, Einstein Bagels.
Others: KoJa Grille (Korean and Japanese food), Temple Star (cheap, crappy, delicious Chinese food), City View (pizza, sandwiches), Owl’s Nest (pizza, sandwiches), Richie’s Deli (pizza, sandwiches), Tai’s (Vietnamese), Plaza Pizza, Insomnia Cookies.</p>
<p>We also have trucks all around campus that sell basically every food possible, but I dont eat at them too often.</p>
<p>One of our dining halls has pretty good steak and they also have good lobster. The lobsters are alive and you get to choose which one you want out of the tank.</p>
<p>I like GBC, Chipotle, Blonde’s, thai basil, gypsies, fat slice, Vietnam Village, sun hong kong, etc…</p>
<p>@chuy- ■■■■ lobster, I want lobster!!</p>
<p>Steak and lobster? Jealous.</p>
<p>Eating our caf food is reputed to be the equivalent of eating raw sewage, so I’m thinking I’ll be eating off-campus quite often.</p>
<p>Akabane, come to VT, home of some of the best on campus food in the country. Whoever it is that takes time to actually review such things consistently puts us in the top 3, and I think West End, our best dining hall, is usually #1. That’s the place with the restaraunt quality hamburgers, lobster, steak, oven-baked pizza, pasta, calzones, vegetarian crap (but who’d want that?), wraps, sandwiches, pies and ice cream, and probably some other stuff I’m forgetting about.</p>
<p>Hmm. I’m hungry now.</p>
<p>@chey Lobster no fair! where are you going?</p>
<p>Virginia Tech.</p>
<p>No fair! TT_TT</p>
<p>I personally like Dog. It’s real good.</p>
<p>They show a public display as they butcher the dog and boil it in hot water.</p>
<p>dog is so delicious. I eat it every day.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I’ll be a part of those lines next year! Hahah.</p>
<p>Oh man, the food at my last school was not very good, for the most part. We really didn’t have any restaurants that we could use our dining plan on. We only had bonus money that we could spend at a few places on campus that didn’t really have anything special in the first place. </p>
<p>Other than that, we had three dining halls of varying quality. The best had really tasty buffalo chicken wraps, with fresh chicken strips, that were absolutely delicious, but I got sick of them after a while because I had them for dinner about every day for a month straight (I just couldn’t stomach most of the other dining options anymore). The middle of the road dining hall had a ton of greasy fried food, which was good but I always left feeling like a cow, so I tried not to eat there as much. The worst dining hall had the best vegan options (which didn’t apply to me anyway), and I got minor food poisoning there twice. </p>
<p>Chuy, I am really jealous of those dining options.</p>
<p>Does anyone know the quality of the dinning halls at the university of colorado at colorado springs?</p>
<p>Try asking in the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs section.</p>
<p>There is no section for UCCS…</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Cornell is #1 and BU is #2.</p>
<p>I go to a tiny liberal arts college in MA, and yet we have a total of 8 dining halls (!). My favorite is a tie between one buffet-style and one a-la-carte. The big dining hall has a culinary showcase of a bunch of different international or special entrees every night, such as the omelette bar, made-to-order tostadas or stir-fry, or buffalo themes. The a-la-carte place has grilled stuff (burgers, breakfast sandwiches, quesadillas, mozzerella sticks, FRIED CHEESECAKE BITES, etc.), salads, some sort of set entree (sometimes Chinese, sometimes pasta), deli bar, and personal pizzas at night! YUM!</p>
