It’s Friday morning. You bursar a latte at the Starbucks under Commons before dragging your way to that 11 a.m. recitation you thought wouldn’t be that bad when you signed up for it. Come noon, nothing sounds better than a steak burrito from Honest Tom’s, so you trek to 44th. A few hours later, you’re standing outside Blarney, shivering while you wait to get your ID checked. You drink, you dance, you shout over the music until the lights come on at two a.m. Once home, you call Jimmy John’s and order a Turkey Tom, which arrives at your front door 10 minutes later–the edible medal of a great night out. But who made it all happen? The barista who made your latte, the girl who rang up your burrito, the bouncer who checked your ID, the bartender who made your drinks, the delivery boy who brought your sandwich. Did you thank them? Did you tip them? Did you ever consider they might go to Penn, too?

If you’ve been at Penn for more than a week, you’ve probably already been to the same BYO twice. Instead of cabbing downtown for overpriced and (occasionally) underwhelming food, walk to Baltimore instead.

Café Clave (43rd and Locust):
12–minute walk
There’s a quiet study room in the back with ample outlets, wi–fi, spinning chairs and committed workers. We’ve witnessed people enforce the quiet rule: this is a spot for serious work. The cash–only shop serves great empanandas and often has live salsa music come evening.

When temperatures breach triple digits, ditch the Natty and head out to The Local 44 Bottle Shop. They’ve got over 500 beers to choose from, so we had to scope it out first. Here’s how we’d pick ‘em.
P.S.: “Good people drink good beer,” is the Shop’s motto — we like that, and we think you’re great.

*Ed Note: Taquizas are informal get-togethers in Mexican households or backyards. The main event: an ample array of hearty tacos and spicy salsas, washed down with a drink (or two). Though it is traditional to hire a catering taquería (taco restaurant), cooking up your own taquiza is just as easy — as easy, we think, as potato salad.

As graduation draws near, seniors begin to ponder how they’ll leave their final legacy. Whether it’s getting their name on the Feb Club plaque at Smoke's or a brick on the 38th St. Bridge, little compares to a gift from 1889.

There’s something you need to know: homebrewing beer, though slightly time–consuming, is not that hard. After buying a brewing kit and sterilizing all the equipment, the beer brewing process can be broken down into five basic steps.
