Tired of eating at the same place everyday? Do you want to try something new, but have no idea where to begin to look? Here are the five food venues that generate the most revenue at SF State. The list is based on a survey conducted by the Cesar Chavez Student Center in October 2013 and includes responses from three thousand five hundred and ninty students. The study also revealed that students use the Student Center mostly for the food venues. The dishes I chose are my personal favorite items. Take a look! You might discover your new favorite place.
1. Ike’s Place
Dish: Barry B Sandwich
Ingredients: Turkey, bacon, Swiss cheese, lettuce and tomato, on Dutch crunch bread.

Veggies are super fresh. Good flavor of the turkey with the crunchy Dutch bread. The bacon adds a salty flavor.
2. Taqueria Girasol

3. Natural Sensations

The taste of the pesto combined with the avocado and feta cheese on a wheat bread is tasty. Tomatoes are fresh daily. You can choose the bread.
4. Gold Coast Grill & Catering

The piece of the steak is juicy. The hamburger is a good size. I could not finish it all, so I saved half of the hamburger for the rest of the day.
5. Café 101
Dish: Vegan maple donut

It was the perfect size, not to big, not too small. The chocolate glaze and the maple flavor make the perfect combination. The taste is sweet, but not too cloying.
