"Through 30 years and multiple owners, the Potato’s Place’s status as a campus staple has never shifted. Ginormous baked potatoes are topped with everything from the classic sour cream to cajun shrimp to corned beef. And for those not ready to take on the potato, every menu item can be swapped for wide-buttered egg noodles instead." - Amelia Benavides-Colón
