Question, because I have only been here for 5 years, and I was quite a youngin when it was here, but the cyclone fries are from the MU mcdonalds?

Thanks. I got here in 05, so I think I remember there being a McDonalds in the MU, but there definitely wasn't one on welch by the time I got here.

As far as Flying Burrito goes, it was better when it first opened and ingredients decreased in quality while i was in school (F03-F07)(guessing because of the new ownership by the campustown food baron?)

Otherwise:
Chinese Homestyle (love their sesame chicken) and Cocost. Is there anywhere in des moines that measures up for cheap chinese? Tried dragon house but didnt think it was quite as good.
Jeff's- I really love their chicken chaser pizza.

I though FB was always owned by Matthew Goodman (The Gyro Guy) but they had to change the name at some point because of copyright/ownership issues. And I agree, after that first year it wasn't very good anymore. I had one burrito that had waaaaay too much gristle in the meat and I haven't been back since.
