Meghan 's Profile

The best sushi in Ames by far. My coworkers and I about once every two weeks and its always such a fun event! Sometimes I get a bit nervous about getting back to the office in time-but it generally works out. They have a fantastic lunch special that comes with two or three rolls and soup or salad. We like to do that and then order a specialty roll to spit between everyone. Its a more expensive lunch at around $15, but worth it!

This is our go-to spot for Mexican at work. They are fast, affordable and delicious, making La Fuente the ultimate lunch break spot. My only problem here is that its hard to avoid over eating and getting insanely full from all of the chips and salsa. I often want to crawl under my desk and take a little nap after La Fuente!

There are time periods where my friends and I go to eat at Hy-Vee about once a week. Hy-vee is the ultimate lunch break spot because it has so many different options for those craving different types of food,its fast and its cheap. I usually always get the all you can eat salad bar for $5.99. I can usually leave feeling pretty good about my food habits for the day here too, as they offer a lot of healthy choices in the salad bar. If your feeling like something different then have pizza, chinese, sandwiches, other prepared meals and hot food at the deli counter. Or, do what we used to in college and get the Grand Buffett for $12 and you can eat all of that!
