An Athletic Appetite

We will be starting a new feature this week called An Athletic Appetite. Team food expert Caitie Van Wormer will be reviewing the best places to eat in Turlock and there are lots of them! Enjoy!

The #1 place to eat this week is PANERA. They have a variety of food that is not only reasonably priced but they also have something delicious for any time of the day, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Not to mention, the food is also quite healthy. I recommend the “pick any two” option with broccoli cheddar soup and your choice of a salad, sandwich, or a hot painini.

Coming in at our #2 spot is the TACO BUS. If you are in the mood for some authentic Mexican food this is the place to go. They have great menu and the prices are relatively cheap, the food is similar to the Taco Truck’s just not as spicy. I recommend the quesadilla supreme with carne asada or the tacos and of course your choice of drink.

Last but certainly not least at #3 is CHINA CAFÉ. They have a large selection of some great Chinese classics. The prices are considerably cheap especially for the amount of food that they give you (large portions). I would recommend the orange chicken, broccoli beef, with chicken chow mein and pork fried rice, or the walnut shrimp special is also quite delicious.

Places to look out for(coming soon to TUR of the LOCK): Cool Hand Luke’s, Sushi Garden 2, and Chipotle
