It is well known that Virginia Tech has one of the best dining centers in the country. From lobster to cheese fries- you can get it all. However, the tiny town of Blacksburg is no joke when it comes to food. There is something yummy for any set of taste buds. Here are a few places any foodie should hit up in Blacksburg, Va.

1. Cabo Fish Taco

Buffalo Shrimp Tocos- YUM!! This place cannot be beat. Chips + Salsa = AMAZING. There is a wide variety of specialty tacos and quesadillas that would make any mouth water. While this is probably your most expensive meal of the week/month. It is still a great meal for under 20 with a tip. Check out Toco Tuesday, and do yourself a favor, order the Spinach Dip.

2. D.P. Dough

I don't care what anyone says — this is the best place in Blacksburg. Cheap, yummy, and filling. D.P. Dough is the perfect place to feed your 3 a.m. cravings. Open late, this Main Street eat offers a great selection of calzones. Don't forget to add cheese tots and cinnamon sticks!

3. Gobble Cakes

If you love cream cheese frosting, you're in luck! Gobble Cakes offers a daily variety of yummy cupcakes. My personal favorite is the cookies and cream. What a great way to treat yourself after a big test. Remember to grab some for friends!

4. Green's Grill and Sushi Bar

Greens is the only acceptable way to get your sushi fix in Blacksburg. The setting is a casual sit down great for celebrating birthdays (under 21). They even have Taco Tuesday specials!

5. El Rodeo

Nothing much to say about this place. You know if you live here.

6. Benny Marzano's

Pizza lovers unite. Ever imagine eating pizza the size of your head? Well, hit up Benny's. This is probably the most overrated eat in town. However, it never disappoints. The line from 12-2 a.m. is basically ridiculous, but at $5 it is a night out staple. This little shop is a great place for meeting friends, starting the night, ending the night, or a percentage night for your organization. Everyone. Loves. Benny's.

5. The Cellar

This place is a hole-in-the-wall bar at night, but the cheese fries are to die for. Literally. They're amazing, but are probably going to give you a stroke. Loaded with cheese and bacon. This is a plate large enough to share, even though you won't want to.

6. Joe's Diner

If you have the patience to wait in line on weekend mornings, this is hands down the best breakfast place in town. The eggs are like eating little clouds.

7. PK's Bar and Grill

Half off wing bites on Wednesday... is your mouth watering? Order in or carry out this place has your classic American favorites.

8. Carol Lee Donuts

This place is amazing. They only take cash, but they are very worth it. Warm, soft, and yummy.

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.
