Peach Valley Café is a hidden gem of Gainesville’s dining. Located on 3275 SW 34th Street, it is a Southern style breakfast and lunch café that somewhat reminds me of a Cracker Barrel or Bob Evans. I’d never heard of it until I went with a group of friends to celebrate my friend’s birthday.
I’m spending the summer in New York City for an internship and, being the foodie that I am, I mapped a strategic plan of restaurants I wanted to hit months in advance. The fun part about the city though, is stumbling across little known places that often have the best food. My roommate and I made a goal for the summer to eat like locals. That is, hit the places where you won’t mingle with models and celebrities, but can still get good food at a good price. I’ve only been here a little over a month, but I’ve already found a few hidden gems that are definitely worth sharing! If you’re ever in the city, do yourself a massive favor and tryout one of these three picks:

Floating in a lagoon, Venice is famously shrouded in mystery and romance… and wonderful places to eat. Thousands parade down the narrow alleyways, looking for the perfect Venetian meal.
Florence gave me more in a mere six weeks than college has given me as a whole in two years. I came into college with no sense of direction. To be honest, my only purpose for majoring in engineering was pleasing my family. For the past few years, I have been desperately searching for myself to no avail. I did not feel the need to do well in my classes, I spread myself too thin amongst clubs in an attempt to find someplace I belonged, and I just was not happy.
Hannah Rogers has proven time and time again her value to the Florida softball team.
Ten minutes. Hundreds of hot dogs. Ninety-degree weather.

It’s Summer B 2014, and freshmen desperation is in the air: You can find them moving in herds of 50 across Midtown, clogging the Starbucks on campus and wearing head-to-toe orange and blue. This isn’t a dig, though, class of 2018. We were in your (brand-new) shoes at one point, and we’re imparting some wisdom to you: Nobody is too cool for an umbrella. Carry an umbrella. And call your mom once a while.
