I wish I had three stomachs. Truly, I do. Because with the brunch menu items from Haile Plantation’s Sisters ranging from dulce de leche crepes and applewood bacon pancakes to huevos rancheros and eggs benedict, there is absolutely no way I could explore every meal that caught my eye.
For UF electrical engineering alumnus Quinn Martin, starting a vegan coffee shop is a way to put his degree into practice.
Gretchen Mcintyre, 30, left, and Katie Conly, 30, read at the Civic Media Center on Monday. The Radical Press Coffee Collective, an independent vegan coffee shop, is scheduled to open there in March, store owner Rusti Poulette said.
Vegetarian and vegan diets are believed to be expensive, inconvenient and limiting, so it’s no wonder you find more couch potatoes than sweet potatoes in the average college student’s home. College students have no problem vegging out but are reluctant to go veggie. In Gainesville, however, going veggie is easy once you know where to go.
Willy Wonka and his chocolate factory could not compare to the real-life chocolate overload of Sweet Dreams’ Fall Chocolate Night 2012.
Walking into The Top, you immediately realize this isn’t your average college-town restaurant. With dim lighting and eclectic décor, the restaurant’s interior is something more akin to a hipster bar in Austin than a Gainesville eatery. Each night of the week has a different specials page, such as Southern Fried Wednesday, which features southern dishes and sides accompanied by longneck and whiskey drink specials.
Downtown, just past the Sun Center, beside the Citizen’s Co-op, the Civic Media Center has a sign on its door. After glancing at the various posters stuck to the inside of the glass — The John Locke Initiative is presenting a discussion, a transgender workshop, a coming poetry jam — the sign makes itself apparent. “The Civic Media Center,” it reads. “Reading Room and Library of the Non-Corporate Press.” The door opens with a creak.
If you have ever watched the cult classic “Girls,” on HBO, you probably remember when Hannah is at that new job and one of the women she works with tells her that her eyelids are too oily and that she is obviously a vegan who isn’t in-taking proper nutrition.
Illegally loud music, skintight fashion and the ever-present scent of Pabst Blue Ribbon invaded the streets of Gainesville this weekend.
While some students lounged on the Plaza of the Americas, others sat confined in crates.
The leaves are still vibrantly green and T-shirts are still more than sufficient, but even in Florida, we crave fall flavor in the form of pumpkin.
Good, clean and fair food. It’s the official slogan of the Slow Food Movement. Tempo Bistro To Go, a sandwich shop at 1516 NW 13th St., is embracing the mantra in big ways.
The sounds of eclectic music and smells of frying food drifted among droves of art lovers through the brick streets of downtown Gainesville Sunday.

Sherrie Blackwelder looked down at her daughter, Isabella.
It’s that time of year again when having four classes seems like the end the world. It seems as if teachers within the same department have no communication skills and schedule his or her exams on the same day, back-to-back. If you are lucky enough to have them one day apart, it is hard enough to remember what information is for what class. Study guides become never ending and the readings neglected for the first month of school finally come back to haunt you when the teacher announces you will be held liable for them.
I don’t know much about the religious or spiritual practices of the Hare Krishnas, but I attend Krishna Lunch religiously.
Let’s face it, the planet is not in good shape, and it’s going to take a group effort to change it. But there’s good news, you’re already doing better than you may think. Sustainability is essentially being frugal, and no one knows frugal like broke college kids.
The leaves turn from forest green to crimson red, “Lincoln Park After Dark” (OPI’s famous dark nail polish color) is flying off the shelves faster than “50 Shades of Grey,” and an amber hue on the horizon seems to be ever-present.

Another drinking and dining option has arrived in Downtown Gainesville.
