The Definitive Rating Of Ann Arbor Pizza Joints

1. Pizza House

Give it up for Our Lord and Savior, Pizza House! I can tell you with total confidence that Pizza House has saved my life at least once my freshman year. With their deliciously thick, Chicago-style pizza crusts and their mountains of gooey cheese, there's no other place I go when I'm looking for the best pizza in town. An added bonus is that they deliver free after 10 p.m., which is when the majority of students order Pizza House. If you haven't tried their Feta Bread and milkshakes yet, then you haven't lived!

2. Pizza Bob's

Located in a little hole in the wall on South Campus by the stadium, Pizza Bob's doesn't seem like anything special when you walk in. But as soon as you taste their pizza (or cheesy bread) you'll realize how great this place is. The pizza tastes like something you'd eat in a small town, 24-hour diner – quality and care put into the making of it, but nothing too fancy, either. The old Formica counter with 1950's, diner-style swivel chairs really add to the overall aesthetic of the restaurant. Plus, Pizza Bob's serves up some of the best milkshakes in Ann Arbor!

3. Neopapalis

Serving a different style of pizza than the rest of the places on this list, Neopapalis' wood fired, flatbread like pizza come in pretty high on my list. Neopapalis serves distinctly different pizzas with your choice of many fresh ingredients. The first time I had their pizza it was cold leftovers, but it was so good that I had to run there and get a pizza the next chance I got!

4. Domino's

I'm adding Domino's to the list because it has a location on central campus (right next to the IM building), and my little Michigan heart wouldn't let me pass up an opportunity to add it. Domino's pizza has been a staple at every school function and sporting event for the last 19 years, so you could say I'm an expert of Domino's pizza at this point.

5. Cottage Inn Pizza

An Ann Arbor staple, Cottage Inn Pizza serves New York style pizza at a caliber slightly above the previous restaurants I mentioned. The crust is slightly thicker and less soggy, and the cheese is gooey instead of paper-like. Their selection of toppings is admirable, also. Cottage Inn pizza is dangerously greasy, though, and I've gotten grease stains on a couple of my shirts while eating their pizza. Despite its grease, I'd still recommend eating Cottage Inn pizza when it's inevitably offered to you at every club's mass meeting.

6. South U Pizza

This pizza tastes almost identical to pizza from NYPD, but due to its ideal location on South University Street, I'm rating it higher than NYPD due to its pure convenience.

7. NYPD

This pizza tastes like your typical mall pizza – with its soggy crust that is too thin for its own good, and cheese that tastes eerily similar to biting into a sheet of paper. It's nothing special.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

158801

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
