Breakfast at Kermit's. Best value on the planet.

El Zarape, for sentimental reasons.

MY favorite BG food is hands down chicken and cheese stuffed breadsticks. Everyone knows what place I'm talking about. Unrivaled.

It's hard to beat a huge, thick, juicy steak from Trotter's!

To me BG has a couple of institutions that are unrivaled for food.

1. Myle's Pizza. Garlic bread w/ cheese and a fantastic Pizza...love this place.
2. J4H's secret. Campus Polleye's Chicken & Cheese stuffed sticks.
3. Mr. Spot's. Double Firesteak with peppers, onions, and provolone.

Southside 6 is probably worthy of getting on this list. Their gyro's are fantastic and the prices are even better. I've been to nearly every restaurant in Greektown at Detroit and I don't think any of them make a gyro as good as Saul. Pisanello's, Zarape, and Corner Grill are all worthy of inclusion as well. But the above are my faves.

I've never been there, but I have an El Zarape memory...

After the last UT game at the Doyt, a friend and I were walking through the lot behind Downtown, etc., and saw a chick bent over, thinking she was puking, turns out she just had to pee. Her friend is babbling loudly, yet incoherently, until the friend stands to zip up when we hear her say "I don't give a f**k if the bitch DOES work at El Zarape!"

Ahhhh, college kids.

Can't go wrong with the classics.

You can't get better ice cream then Myles DQ. The peanut butter, cocoa sauce, and cheesecake is a personal favorite

Corner Grill is absolutely amazing after a long night drinking.

Whenever my parents come in to town I always take them to SamB's. While a bit on the expensive side, it's great food.

Oh, and Qdoba > Chipotle.

I'm with TG. Chipotle is worlds better. Qdoba has more choices, but they're not as good.
