Oh and I forgot–If you are looking for GREAT fresh breakfast food… I HIGHLY recommend The Runcible Spoon, a well known Bloomington institution since the 70s and it’s famously decorated bathroom(i.e.- Koi fish in the bathtub!) for great organic coffee and massive quantities of organic breakfast foods at a very respectable price.

Come to Indiana University Bloomington! We may have been a former #1 party school but we are also a foodie’s paradise. We have great ethnic restaurants along with some of the best fresh and organic food around. I recommend The Trojan Horse for excellent Greek food(and fish tacos & burgers as surprising as that sounds), Siam House for excellent Thai food, or even the Irish Lion for great traditional Irish food and great late night pub grub! If you are looking for something more upscale, I recommend 2010 James Beard Best Chef Nominee Chef David Tallent and his eatery, Restaurant Tallent, it’s fabulous!

Hey Taylor – It’s Nick’s brother Chris. Gotta hit Tallahassee man – hit up Monk’s Bar and Grill for an AWESOME burger easily under $10!

What about Berkeley? I am a recent graduate and man, has the place reshaped my view on food.
Oakland, Berkeley, SF is a trifecta of deliciousness.

Cheeseboard Pizza and Bakery. Bake Sale Betty’s. Gregoire. Ici. Oakland Chinatown. If you are ever in town, shoot me an e-mail.

I just stumbled on your blog since I’m looking for places in Madison to go to when I visit tomorrow for a conference.

When in Gainesville you should head to Satchel’s Pizza for sure. The food is great and the restaurant itself is an experience, just make sure to bring cash and plan on a wait. Also, order the salad!

Found your blog from food gawker. As a fellow Badger alum, I wholeheartedly agree with your assessment as Madison as one of the best foodie college towns! From the farmers market full of fresh local foods in the spring AROUND the capital to University-made ice cream and some of the best ethnic food carts YEARS before the food truck became popular in LA – Madison has it all!
