Re: Purdue - Places to Eat?

Aha! My living in WL for the longest time helps now.

You can tell me which of these interest you and I'll give you addresses, but for now just descriptions:

My favorite spot is tied betwen Scotty's & Khana Khazana. Two very different places, but both quite good.

I. On-Campus/Campus Area (within a mile)

Amen to McGraw's: Amazing ribs, amazing fish. Truly a hidden classic
Amen to Scotty's - Absolutely awesome food
Amen to Pappy's Sweetshop - Purdue Classic, American food
Buffalo Wild Wings - Yah, they're everywhere, but they're that good

If you're feeling ethnic,
Khana Khazana - Amazing Indian buffet (very pricey); my personal fave
Blue Nile - Middle Eastern, awesome pricing
Olive House - Also Middle Eastern
Parthenon - Greek, not as good as place across town

If you just need to grab a sandwich for the road, go to Jimmy John's.

The big places to eat on campus/near campus are mainly The Village (Fazoli's, Arby's, some Thai, some Greek, some of everything basically)

Student Union (Pappy's, a food court, smoothies, Pizza)

The Levy Area (down the hill from campus)
Scotty's, Buffalo Wild Wings, Dick's BBQ (awesome place to go), Snowbear, Panera, Starbucks, Potbelly's (not near everything else, but that general location)

There's also another small area that is called lots of different things as I hear, I usually refer to it as "Food near McCutcheon" or something similar, that has Pizza Hut & Dairy Queen, and also a Subway.
