Welcome to www.iVasquez.com east valley food section!  This section includes Awhatukee/Phoenix, Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, Scottsdale and Tempe.  If the menu was too large to scan, it has been broken into smaller photos. (Ex: 01, 02, 03)  I really enjoy all the restaurants listed below and I hope you will too!

The name should give it away!  Bagels, bagels and more bagels!  Bruegger's also carries a limited selection of Krispy Kreme doughnuts if you feel like something sweet.

Chompies 
1160 E. University
Tempe, AZ 85281
(On University between Rural and McClintock)

(480) 557-0700 
 

Comments
This is one of the best places to eat around campus!  Breakfast is relatively inexpensive for the amount of food that they give you.  The only downside to this restaurant is the wait for breakfast on the weekends!  If you are stuck, I recommend the Belgian waffles with bacon and eggs.  If that sounds like too much food, try their delicious bagels!

T.C. Eggintons provides a motley selection of breakfast items with an emphasis on pancakes!  If you get stuck on the menu, I recommend the "Plain and Simple."  Don't forget to get a glass of their freely squeezed orange juice!  This restaurant is a definite palate pleaser.

This is one of the best places to eat around campus!  Anyone like pastrami!? Wonderful hot pastrami sandwiches and potato knish's.  (If you have never had a potato knish, try it with hot with mustard....makes my mouth water!)  For desert I recommend the black and white cookie.
