BU Dining is great. There are always<\/span>\u00a0lots of o<\/span>ptions, and the staff is incredibly helpful and friendly. Marciano Commons, one of the three dining halls on campus, is in fact right across the street from Kilachand Hall. However, sometimes you\u2019re not in the mood for the dining hall, or if you have a kitchen, don\u2019t have enough time to cook. I\u2019ve got you covered. Here\u2019s a list of my favorite spots to eat around BU:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Einstein\u2019s\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Einstein\u2019s is perfect for breakf<\/span>ast, lunch, or a quick snack. Conveniently located in the College of Arts and Sciences (where most of my classes happen to be), Einstein\u2019s is the best. I always can grab a bagel, an iced coffee, and a table to do work or catch up with a friend in between classes.<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Dunkin\u2019 Donuts<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      I know, I know. A lot of people prefer Starbucks. But being from New England, Dunks will always be my favorite. The only one on campus is connected to Stuvi 1 on West Campus. An iced coffee with mocha swirl always makes my day better!<\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Basho<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Basho is right in the middle of campus, so I like swinging by this place on my way home for lunch or dinner when I don\u2019t have as much time to cook. The Katsu Chicken Bowl is my favorite. This bowl with crispy chicken and a ton of veggies and rice really hits the spot.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Limered Teahouse<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          This is, in my opinion, the best place for boba on campus! It\u2019s on west campus near Stuvi 2. I love ordering a classic milk tea with red beans and then camping out in the cozy chairs near the front window to get bigger assignments, like essays and presentations, all wrapped up.<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Raising Canes\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            I think as a BU student I\u2019m required to mention Canes. And it\u2019s true, it\u2019s the best. Near Limered, Canes serves up the best chicken, fries, and garlic bread. Not to mention the Canes sauce – most people think it\u2019s better than the Chick-fil-a sauce, but you\u2019ll have to try it and let me know what you think.<\/p>\n

              \n
            1. Cornish Pasty Co<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              This restaurant is a quick walk from Danielson Hall, on the east end of campus, and is perfect for cold Boston nights. This British establishment serves up the best pasties, my favorite being the traditional. It\u2019s essentially meat, cheese, and veggies all baked into a pastry shell, and it\u2019s the best after walking down the wind tunnel Bay State Road can turn into in January and February.<\/p>\n

                \n
              1. Coreanos<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                Finally, we have Coreanos. I\u2019ll admit that this one isn\u2019t so much on campus, it\u2019s a little farther into the Allston neighborhood. However, it\u2019s totally worth the walk, or a short ride down the T. Coreanos is a Korean and Mexican fusion restaurant. I always order their classic bowl, packed with chicken, rice, eggs, and the best sauce. It\u2019s fun to go here on the weekends when I\u2019m spending time with friends and unwinding from the week before.<\/p>\n

                I hope that these recommendations can help you out when you\u2019re checking out Kilachand and BU. Feel free to reach out to any of us ambassadors to ask any questions!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
