Franklin Street 942-5149 By VANESSA ORR Staff Writer Some restaurants just dont fit in anywhere. Instead of limiting itself to a particular cuisine, it offers a smorgasbord of concoctions. "Hoagie's is a place for everyb ody," said Jorgen Petersen, owner of Hoagie's Chicken and Ribs. The family-run business, located 1.5 miles from campus at 790 Airport Rd., offers sandwiches, hoagies, chicken, daily dinner specials, hamburgers, ribs and more. Most sandwiches come in six and twelve inch sizes, with prices ranging from $1.75 to $4.50, and the rest of the menu is under $60. "The food is first-class and the prices are excellent, said Petersen. He personally recommends the hoagie as "a hell of a good deal." Hoagie's serves both beer and wine, and has a happy hour Monday through Friday from three to six, when both wine and beer are half-price. They do have take-out, though no delivery service. "We have a lot of return cus tomers, even people who remember when we were on Rosemary Street," Petersen said. "Business is pretty good during the day, but a little slow at night. We'd like to get the kids in." Hoagie's is also an enjoyable place to eat. One can sit- back in the red-upholstered booths and listen to opera music, and for the nature lover, there is an outdoor patio. Hoagie's Chicken and Ribs is open from 1 1 a.m. to 1 1 p.m., Monday through Saturday. "For great food, reasonable prices and a cool atmosphere, you want Chutney 's," said Amy Kolis, a waitress at Colonel Chutney's Garden Cafe. Chutney's, located at 300 W. Rosemary St., offers a wide variety of food, ranging from sandwiches to steaks and seafood to salad. "The prices are a bit high for most students," according to Alex Porter, owner and manager of Chutney's, "but there is always something that will appeal to everybody." Porter recommended the prime rib. "We have the best prime rib in town and fresh seafood that's why people come to us." Chutney's is an informal, friendly restaraunt with mostly booth seating inside, but there is a patio for those wishing to dine outdoors. Chutney's does have all ABC permits, and does accept local checks. There is no take-out or delivery service. Though the major ity of the clientele are 21 to 35 year olds and graduate students, all students are welcome. Chutney's is open from 4:30 p.m.to 2 a.m. seven days a week, and has Sunday brunch from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Rubens Restaraunt, located in Hotel Europa Europa Drive, "tries to have everything that a person could think of," according to waiter Vicki Vance. "We have an excellent variety, including specialty items, lots of different sauces, breakfast, lunch and dinner items, special desserts, and we will even cater to special diets, given two days notice," Vance said. "We try to give the customer what the customer wants." Rubens also has an hors d'oeuvre trolley, with nine cold choice items, and a dessert trolley, which is a favorite with customers, said Vance. Rubens also employs a team system, which provides each table with two waiters. Members of the staff speak a number of different languages, because of the number of inter national customers the restaraunt serves. Rubens is an elegant restaraunt, though Vance said that "Rubens has a reputation of being snobbier than we really are." There is not a formal dress code, though men are asked to wear jackets at dinner. Prices are a bit higher than most surrounding restaraunts, ranging from $9.75 to $18.95 for dinner. Rubens Restaraunt is open from 7 a.m.to 10 a.m. for breakfast, 1 1 :30 a.m. to 2 p.m. for lunch, and 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. for dinner, seven days a week, and Sunday brunch is served from 1 1 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Going to Fearrington House is like walking through a time warp. The House resembles an old southern plantation house, with a patio, porch swing, and arbor in back. Even the rocking chairs on the front porch give a feeling of old time southern hospitality. It's located on the 15-501 bypass eight miles from campus. The menu features "southern regional gourmet dining" and an ail-American wine list. The menu changes every season, and the majority of the vegetables and herbs come from the house gardens and local produce. The prices for entrees range from $11.95 to $15.95, and they offer lunch, dinner and Sunday brunch. o o Vs OFF MEMBERSHIPS AT BIvLIOTSHEST NOW 01 0 NORMALLY $20 MUST BE 19 YEARS OLD TO APPLY LIVE ENTERTAINMENT EACH WEDNESDAY DJ NIGHTLY BIG SCREEN FOR SPORTS EVENTS GREAT FACILITIES FOR PARTIES AND MIXERS CALL 967-4273 A PRIVATE CLUB OPEN TO MEMBERS AND THEIR GUESTS L
