Healthy Living

College students aren't known to have the greatest eating habits or nutrition. Most of us just left home and don't have too much confidence in the kitchen yet, but there are easy solutions out there for healthy nutrition. San Francisco has weekly markets, and  these are great places to purchase fresh fruits and veggies for low prices.

Super Indeed

Known to many as Super Taco, this small taqueria is located right at the border of the tenderloin on 7th Street and Leavenworth. With the option of making your burrito or taco vegetarian, this taqueria is an increasingly popular spot for people who seek a fresh yet inexpensive meal. 

La Altena

Looking for a close to the border taste without the expensive check? Try La Altena down in the Mission District for an authentic taste without having to empty your wallet.

Oh so Delicious

What better way to treat yourself than by going down to Haight and Ashbury and buying a gigantic waffle cone filled with delicious goodness of you choice! Ben and Jerry's which is located between Ashbury and Masonic, is a great place to go, relax, an enjoy a delicious ice cream cone with friends. Certain members of the staff are always displaying quirky hats, and the laid back vibe that the haight district offers, is always a great place to spend some time in. The ice cream may be a little on the expensive side for student's budget, but it is well worth it.

A Big No No

Word to the wise: Stay away from Carl's Jr. in the Civic Center. This is one of he dirtiest fast food location I have ever seen, and I have never even been inside. It is a good idea to thoroughly evaluate any fast food chain before you decide to eat there. Remember you are San Francisco, and not everything is safe.

Love at first bite...

The Turkey Sandwhich

The Al Bundy Sandwich

Ike' Place is the one stop that you must try! I was not a sandwich person before I went to Ike's but they quickly changed that. Trying to be adventurous, I decided to step out of my comfort zone and try this sandwich bistro. To my surprise, it was love at first bit. The bread is amazing, the meats are fresh, and the combinations are completely unheard of! With quirky names such as the Al Bundy sandwich, the ex-boyfriend, and the doomsday sandwich, Ike's place creates an enjoyable and delicious dinning experience. But if that doesn't convince you, they also give free lollipops with every sandwich.
