The Top 10 Best Local Restaurants In Waco

1. Schmaltz's

Shmaltz's is by far the best place to get a sandwich in Waco. What sets it apart is their amazing signature bread.

2. Cafe Homestead

Cafe Homestead is a little set apart from the rest of the Waco scene. The Mennonite restaurant is secluded in the country in a beautifully tranquil area. The food and the scenery are both to die for.

3. D's Mediterranean

D's Mediterranean is by far the best place to get Greek food in the Waco area. The grilled chicken is some of the best you can have and the hummus is top-notch.

4. Health Camp

An old Waco favorite, Health Camp is worth the cheat day if you're looking to splurge on calories. Go in for a burger and a shake and you won't leave disappointed.

5. Mix Cafe

Mix Cafe is a much newer Waco favorite. There are two locations with one on Baylor's campus, and it's become a favorite among students. Healthy options and great deserts make it a prime choice for lunch any day!

6. Cafe Cappuccino

Cafe Cappuccino is a Waco must. The hardest thing about going to this Waco staple is having to decide what you're going to have for breakfast. From pancakes to breakfast tacos, it's all amazing!

7. Vitek's BBQ

Another old Waco favorite, Vitek's, is the best stop for barbecue. Their famous Gut Pack was even voted the number one college food in America!

8. Baris

If you're looking for Italian food that won't disappoint, Baris is the place. Their rolls will have you asking for more and even a to-go box at the end of your meal!

9. Manny's On The River

Manny's has become a new Waco favorite for Mexican food. The Tex-Mex restaurant is located right on the river for the perfect night out with friends or family!

10. Lolita's

Lolita's is the perfect stop for authentic Mexican cuisine. Everything on the menu is homemade and amazing!

So while we approach the greatest time of the year, let's watch the 15 best Christmas movies of all time.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

#EnglishMajorProbs

SMUM

1998

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

You cringe when you read a non-English major's paper,

You could spend all day in a library.

Goodbyes are hard, but reunions are worth it.

Blogs are confusing.

"That's what she said" jokes will never get old.

Bros should always come before hoes because...

Declaring bankruptcy isn't as hard as we all thought.

Office places can be weird and stressful at times.

Michael Scott loves Dunder Mifflin and the Scranton Office more than anything.
