Cheap Eats: Ode to a Burrito

Food Emergency! What do you do when you have a sudden craving for food, but know it has to be fast, cheap, and delicious? The obvious answer: a burrito!

Unfortunately, although tempting, Chipotle is a little bit more money than you would want to spend on a college budget and Qdoba is just, well, gross. But what would you say if I said that you could get a burrito that is better than Chipotle, and half the price, right here on campus?

Go down to Lucky’s Mexican Spot, a food truck located on Spruce, right across the street from the Quad. It's convenient whenever you've got a class nearby, and always convenient for those who live in the Quad.

Lucky's serves burritos with all kinds of different ingredients inside, from sweet potatoes, to tofu, to steak. Each one comes wrapped tight with guacamole, sour cream, pico de gallo, rice, beans and other delicious ingredients. Our favorite aspect of Lucky's burrito is its lightly toasted tortilla, giving it a slight crunch as you bite into burrito perfection. All in all, it's a great, cheap option that's right in our backyard.
