Top 10 Foods At San Antonio's Fiesta

It's fiesta time in San Antonio, TX. A time of the year that some would say is an excuse for citizens to come together and get drunk every night for a week. Regardless for any native San Antonia, fiesta has a special place in your heart. Fiesta is not an event taken lightly as there is several events and even Fiesta Royalty. However everyone knows that the real royalty is the food. Here are some of the best fiesta foods:

1. Chicken on a stick

The real fiesta king is chicken on a stick. Fried to perfection and topped with a juicy jalapeño, chicken on a stick was made for convenience.

2. Shrimp on a stick

3. Fried everything!

Fiesta is the event to get any food you want fried. There are a plethora of options between Oreos, Twinkles, Snickers bars and cheesecake, to name a few.The perfect balance between sweet and salty.

4. Funnel cake

Funnel cakes are fried but they deserve their own category. A common fair food, fiesta turns this classic into art, providing a variety of toppings and options.

5. Fruit cups

6. Oysters

Oyster Bake is a traditional fiesta event that takes place on the campus of St. Mary's University. Toward the back of the event there are over 3 booths with oyster options. It isn't Oyster Bake until you crack open an oyster.

7. Ribbon fries

Putting regular and curly fries to shame, ribbon fries are made fresh. Their strange models an art form.

8. Turkey leg

Second to the chicken on stick, no one can resist biting into a juicy turkey leg.

9. Corn in the cup

10. Beer

Beer may not be a food but it's the reason 90 percent of people show up to Oyster Bake. The other 10 percent are probably underage. At this point I'm pretty sure being hungover during fiesta week is a reasonable excuse to call in the next day.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
