The 17 Best Places to Eat in State College, Home of Penn State | Eater

"Tucked away in a small plaza on Calder Way, Cafe Alina may be easy to miss if you’re not looking for it, but this Pakistani spot owned by husband and wife duo Asam and Afsheen Mirza is a must-visit. Upon entering, guests are greeted with the aroma of spices and a sleek (and highly Instagrammable) dining area. Order the chicken charga to share, or opt for the chicken or paneer karahi if you want your homestyle-cooked meal all to yourself. Be sure to get some vegetable pakoras on the side, and pair it all with a refreshing glass of mango lassi or a steaming mug of chai." - Victoria Gough
