Edited on Mon Mar-06-06 11:21 PM by ChoralScholar
I love any kind of food, but where should I definitely eat before I leave?

1. Try Saleem's, its a Lebenese Restaurant on the Delmar Loop...
That's one, or you could try the Vietnam Star, its on Olive, you can't miss it. Other suggestions are also on Olive, let's see, there's a Japanese Restaurant, forget the name, its next door to a Korean Catholic Church, right off of I-170, the innerbelt. Also, there are a ton of other restaurants off the Delmar/U-City Loop if you want to try them.

2. Try to get to The Hill if you can.
Edited on Mon Mar-06-06 11:29 PM by deadparrot
It's an Italian neighborhood with tons of restaurants. Lots of culture.

If you're looking for a quick order-in, try Imo's Pizza (:P)

A few links to help you out:

Does anyone know of any good Sports bars in downtown? Ozzie's is great, I'm sure, but it's a long way out.

Give me a good normal or thick crust pizza, with cheese, bacon, and pepperoni and I'm in heaven. :9

14. Thicker crusts are okay...
but all too often, they've got 37589759804754980 pounds of crust, and a just a smattering of toppings. If I wanted to chew a huge hunk of bread, I would chew a huge hunk of bread. :D

7. Mmmmmmm.......Imo's
I was at volleyball camp in the mid-80's and met one of the boys. :loveya:
Needless to say, I had a huge crush. He kept coming back to see us, oh, and
bring some pizza. I would have said it was good pizza anyway! :9
