5 Eateries Around Rutgers New Brunswick To Feed Your Inner Foodie

In the realm of food, Rutgers New Brunswick has an enormous amount of places to pick from. College is the time for new experiences and the diversity at Rutgers helps people discover new foods that they thought they would never try before. Here are some of my favorite places around campus.

1. Henry's Diner

Henry's Diner is located on Livingston campus and has such a great vibe to it. Eating there feels like you're eating at a local diner in your hometown. The people who work there are extremely kind and there are so many choices to pick from. I had a portobello mushroom and steak panini which was really good.

2. Noodle Gourmet

Some members of a club and I went to Noodle Gourmet for dinner and the service was fast. Although the place is small, the staff tries their best to accommodate for the size of the group. I am very picky about bubble tea, but the bubble tea here was great. I recommend the mango bubble tea.

3. KBG Korean Barbecue and Grill

KBG was a place I always went to in high school during the model congress and UN conferences held nearby. You get to pick what goes into your meal and the prices are very reasonable. I always get the LA style bowl, which comes with chicken and rice. There is also bubble tea in the restaurant which tastes amazing.

4. Mamoun's

We had Mamoun's at a meeting and it was definitely a new experience for me. I never had falafel before and it was a pleasant experience. I always walked past it and never thought about going in, but I will definitely go back and try some more new food.

5. La Bagel

Although it's quite out of the way, La Bagel is one of the best breakfast spots in the area. New Jersey has the best bagels and La Bagel represents that well. The prices are great and the staff is very friendly.

I am an extremely picky eater and I always stick to the same order when going out to eat at restaurants. Rutgers has helped me open my horizons when it comes to food. This list only encompasses the tip of the iceberg and there are so many other places to eat at.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
