The End To The Moe's Vs. Chipotle Debate
Salsarita's Fresh Mexican Grill

So we've all heard of the famous debate, Moe's or Chipotle? People everywhere have taken to social media and each other arguing in favor of the choice they love. Personally, I used to be a Moe's kind of girl, but now I'm here to tell you there's a new competitor climbing the ladder, and it's putting an end to this long fought debate. Here's why I found Moe's Southwest Grill to be superior to Chipotle.

For starters, the environment of every Moe's is incredibly friendly, as each employee greets you with a nice "welcome to Moe's!" as you walk through the door. While Chipotle and Moe's have similar items on their menus, I have always found the food at Moe's to taste better, and more fresh. Regardless of this, the biggest quality that Moe's has over Chipotle is QUESO. If you aren't one who likes cheese dip, it's perfectly fine to have your salsa and guacamole. However, why should us queso-lovers be left hanging at Chipotle? In addition to this, why should I have to pay for chips separately at Chipotle, when I can make my meal a combo with chips and a drink at Moe's? Perhaps the biggest deciding factor for me other than queso, is the fact that when I get the exact same meal from each place, it always satisfies me more at Moe's. But there are many valid arguments in favor of Chipotle in addition to those for Moe's. And while you may still stand firm in your decision to support either one, there is a new fast food Mexican grill in town that I believe will put an end to this debate.

That restaurant is Salsarita's Fresh Mexican Grill. This up-and-coming chain restaurant has its roots in Charlotte, North Carolina, opening up its first store in 2000. Since then, it has rapidly grown and has locations in 18 states in the eastern part of the United States, and is still growing.

I guarantee that this chain will be making its way to the west coast in no time, because its just that good. Part of what makes Salsarita's so good is that it really lives up to the "Fresh" in its name. Everything tastes fresh, everything is fresh, and everything is good. Also, what's better than getting free chips and queso when you make it a combo? Not to mention, the side of queso you get with your chips is double the size of a side at Moe's, and tastes amazing! In continuing my reviews of each of these three Mexican grills, I have ordered the exact same meal every time, and without a doubt have been the most satisfied every single time since I've started going to Salsarita's. You might be pretty skeptical at first, but if I can put aside my love for Moe's and welcome in a new favorite restaurant, I truly believe you will too.

So stop arguing over whether Moe's or Chipotle is better, because I'm here to tell you that Salsarita's takes the cake. Keep in mind this is my personal opinion, but seriously go try and see for yourself!

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.

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.
