| - How is Bio Bistro not yet in the Yelp-osphere!?
This has been my on-the-fly, go-to place for sustenance when busily working away at ASU. It is located in the Biodesign building at McAllister and Tyler, across the way from Psychology. It gets very popular at lunch time, being one of the few easy options on this side of campus, and it definitely beats fighting your way through the sea of undergrads at the MU student center.
The barista at Bio Bistro is great - a little rough around the edges and he tends to take his time making your drink, but in the end it's worth the wait because he makes foamy latte goodness. They serve 2 types of espresso at your request for the picky espresso drinker in all of us. The strawberry lemonade is also great, and they have a decent assortment of teas. Do remember to stop in after 3pm for Espresso Drink Happy Hour! Half-off all espresso drinks. I know I definitely need a pick-me up around 3:30 to get me through the rest of the day.
The coffee is a great deal. The food, not such a great deal. I am a sucker for the tuna sandwich, the veggie korma (with yogurt and chutney), and Cajun delight pizza - they are all really tasty and surprisingly satisfying. They also have sandwiches, bagels, pastries, and salads - you can grab something out of the case or get a sandwich made to order. I just find the prices a bit high for the food, but, when I'm hungry and in a hurry, I pop on over for a bite and a latte.
Bio Bistro is quick, easy, and good - check it out if you find yourself wandering around campus!
