 With a campus as diverse as Temple's, you are bound to come across some interesting places to eat. Temple boasts almost every cuisine imaginable, from the halal food carts and Chinese food trucks, to the late night hotspot known as U Got Munchies. But for the seasoned Temple foodie, what are some new spots to try? One of this year's most buzzed about places is Ray's Lunch Box, located at 1536 Carlisle Street. It is a deli style shop complete with free Wi-Fi and a coffee bar that caters toward busy students. Known mostly for its sandwiches and barbeque, Ray's also offers pasta salads, soups, homemade chili and even truffle fries — you name it and they probably have it. Lucky for us, they accept Diamond Dollars and online orders too. Temple is a growing community, owner Ray Wilson said. I wanted to give kids a better choice of homemade food as opposed to the bigger chains. If you're going to Ray's for the first time, Wilson suggests trying a chicken cutlet sandwich or panini, two of its most popular items. hummus, and buffalo tahini sauce. It was a weird combo, but definitely super tasty. Burger King, an old favorite, has also made an appearance on campus right next to Pita Chip, across from Morgan Hall. It'll definitely be convenient for students looking to switch up their typical Wendy's or McDonald's meal. If you haven't already, try their unique fan favorite: chicken fries. A great option for commuters is Saige Cafe, which opened spring 2015. Located near Temple's train station behind Anderson and Gladfelter Hall, the cafe's relaxing atmosphere is a great space to get some work done or grab a coffee and pastry after your daily commute. A personal favorite is the newly relocated Bagel Hut that used to be next to Barton Hall, which is now demolished. Now housed in the parking lot between the Student Center and the tech center. Bagel Hut ditched its red and white exterior for bright blue and is back open for business. Bagel Hut offers a variety of snacks, but its warm, toasted poppy seed bagels with cream cheese are the best pick-me-up on the block, trust me. Pita Chip, located at 1600 Broad Street, is another up-and-coming food joint with outstanding reviews. It offers an affordable menu of classic Mediterranean and vegetarian options like falafel, hummus, baklava, and of course, seasoned pita chips. It's also a healthier alternative for those looking to stay away from 7-Eleven taquitos or Maple Star eggrolls. I wasn't sure if I would like Pita Chip or not, but it was such a pleasant surprise, said Erin Moore, a junior at Temple. I got one of their rice bowls with falafel, vegetables. Temple is always adding new places for students to dine. Next time you're looking to change up your typical Tropical Smoothie or Cosi order, give one of the newest eateries a try.

FREEFOOD FUNFRIDAYS IN THE STUDENT CENTER Temple kicks off every weekend with four Fs Owls love to hear: Free Food and Fun Friday. In addition to being a great example of alliteration. Free Food and Fun Friday is an event held in the Howard Gittis Student Center at 10:00 p.m. every — you guessed it — Friday. FFFF gives Temple students the opportunity to start their weekend with a bang by partaking in hilarious and crazy activities and enjoying delicious, free cuisine. Main Campus Program Board, the Student Activities office and other student organizations bring FFFF to life each week. Although its delicious food and zany fun is consistent, the theme every week is different, resulting in various combinations of dishes and activities. Students come back each week because they never know what to expect — other than a memorable night, of course. Each student who attends FFFF is able to get involved, and even has a chance to bring home cash prizes. This year was kicked off with a guess the lyrics game show that sent dozens of students home with cash prizes ranging from $5 to $50. Students have also enjoyed participating in games modeled after hit TV shows such as Family Feud and Minute to Win It. Freshman Ben Lowenthal started his Temple career on the right foot by winning $200 in a game of ThinkFast trivia at this year's first FFFF. I go to Free Food and Fun Friday because it's a place where I can hang out with a bunch of my friends and have a good time, Lowenthal said. Winning $200 was such a cool experience and it definitely made me want to keep going back. Although it's definitely a plus, the event is not just about winning cool prizes. Freshman Maura Razanauskas and her friends are die-hard FFFF-goers and attend the event every week. It is great because my friends and I can hang out, socialize and meet new people, Razanauskas said. The free food is an enticing bonus.
