Many people say the best restaurants are the ones unknown to the mass public. Well I’m here to tell you everyone on campus knows every restaurant. And the students who know the best restaurants are the ones who live on campus, and more specifically the athletes. I found a standout athlete from the women’s soccer team. She was in the top five for points on the women’s team. Elizabeth Watt’s not only scores in games but also scores when it comes to eating.

1. Panda Express

Elizabeth’s first restaurant of choice is Panda Express, and she always gets the honey chicken with rice. She says Panda Express has great service, the food is always hot and is served fast.

2. Subway

If Elizabeth is off campus and looking for a healthier meal she will stop at Subway and get a meatball on white bread. After games she will get a sub because it Is fast and cheap. http://www.businessinsider.com/unhealthy-sandwiches-at-subway-2014-6

3. Steak and Shake

Another on campus restaurant that has great sandwiches and burgers is Steak and Shake. Here Elizabeth gets the fresco melt with fries. She truly enjoys the thin French fries you get with the sandwich. https://orderonline.steaknshake.com/o/restaurant/19556/group/32828

4. Chick fil a

The classic chick fil a chicken sandwich must make the top five and it did at number four. Who does not love chick fil a even if they are not open on Sundays? https://www.chick-fil-a.com/Menu-Items/Spicy-Sandwich

5. Starbucks

The next item on the list may not be a food but it helps you stay up late, it’s the white chocolate mocha from Starbucks. When you have been up for 36 hours and need some energy, this should be your go to drink. At least this is what Elizabeth thinks. https://www.starbucks.com/menu/drinks/frappuccino-blended-beverages/mini-white-chocolate-mocha-frappuccino-blended-beverage

6. Taco Bell

When she is off campus she always like the fan favorite from Taco Bell, the quesarito. She prefers the chicken quesarito over the others. Her favorite time to go is late at night when not its been a long day and she has not eaten all day. http://www.latimes.com/food/dailydish/la-dd-taco-bells-quesarito-quesadilla-burrito-20140605-story.html

7. Cook-out

For a quick and cheap lunch, she will go to cookout and get the burger with fries and onion rings with the cookout sauce. Sometimes she will get a chocolate shake if she is feeling extra hungry. https://www.theodysseyonline.com/the-correct-way-to-order-your-food-at-cook-out

8. Zaxby’s

When she is craving a good chicken meal her first stop is chick fil a but if she is not wanting chick fil a, she will go to Zaxby’s and get a zak snak. She gets the original with the zax sauce. “Nothing beats zax sauce and the texas toast”. https://www.zaxbys.com/menu/most-popular-meals/big-zax-snak-meal/

9. Boulevard

The women’s soccer team will go to the Boulevard on games for a team meal. She would get the cheese burger with fries and a water every gameday. She thought the food inspired her to play better. https://www.styleweekly.com/richmond/food-review-boulevard-burger-and-brew-puts-a-modern-spin-on-an-old-richmond-classic/Content?oid=2326826

10. Sir Pizza

“Friday nights are always a good time to get pizza especially when its in tiny little squares.” Elizabeth loves the way they cut the pizza here at Sir Pizza and she is fond of the pepperoni pizza they serve here. https://www.yelp.com/biz/sir-pizza-battle-creek

11. La Siesta

A great Mexican restaurant next to campus is La Siesta. Here Elizabeth gets a taco and two burritos; she thinks the salsa is great too. Or she will order two tacos if she is not craving a burrito. https://www.yelp.com/biz/la-siesta-mexican-restaurant-murfreesboro-2

12. Slick Pig

When Elizabeth is looking for slow cooked pulled pork she will go down the road to slick pig. Although she can not eat all this food shown, she knows there will be leftovers in the apartment for a few days. As long as a teammate does not get to it first. https://www.tripadvisor.com/LocationPhotoDirectLink-g60970-d471468-i248440846-Slick_Pig_Bar_b_q-Murfreesboro_Tennessee.html
