Baskin-Robbins, Ben & Jerry's, Ge

businesses are on Franklin Street,

Also serving fine Mexican food
are Papagayo's, in the NCNB Plaza
across from campus, and Tijuana Fat's
on Rosemary Street. The Flying Bur
rito on Airport Road serves fine, less
expensive, Mexican fare.
The Golden Dragon and Four-Five-Six
are practically next door to each
other on Franklin and serve you
guessed it Chinese food. Both serve
cafeteria- style and nearly identical
fare. The consensus is that Golden
Dragon's food is tastier, but Four-Five-Six
gives larger portions.
Pizza anyone?
Well, when you're in the mood,
the Italian Pizzeria on West Fran
klin, Pepper's on East Franklin,
Tony's in University Mall and Mar
iakakis Restaurant on U.S. 15-501
are all top-notch. Tony's and Italian
Pizzeria both serve New York-style
pizza, and Pepper's is renowned for
its spicy sauce. Mariakakis also has
Greek specialties, along with the tasty
and garlicky Arabic bread, which is
basically a pizza without the sauce.
Not good to order on a date unless
you share it, but definitely worth the
mouthwash you'll need later. .
Some of the local pizza delivery
services include Domino's, Pizza Hut
and Gumby's. Students have the lux
ury of charging Domino's pies to their
meal cards (hear that, Mom and Dad?),
but Gumby's is generally acknowl
edged to have the lowest pizza prices
in town.
