Panda Express
Just the thought of Panda Express orange chicken makes my mouth water. Grand Junction currently does not have any fast food Chinese restaurants. If you order Chinese food, it usually takes 30 mins to an hour to deliver. Going to a Chinese restaurant requires getting ready and they can be pretty pricey. It would be nice to have an easy fix to my Chinese food cravings. Panda Express provides quality Chinese food in a timely matter and affordable price.
Panera Bread
Panera’s bread bowls are always very satisfying, especially on snowy days. Panera provides a cozy environment to spend time with friends and family, or get some work done. Their menu is full of healthy and delicious food options. Zoup does a decent job providing similar food, but, it’s just not the same. Panera is consistent with their menu options and the quality of their products. Also, Panera provides free coffee after you purchase a cup, so studying would be way more efficient at Panera.
Jamba Juice
After a hard workout, a protein filled smoothie is all my body craves. The problem is there are only two smoothie places in all of Grand Junction. Jamba Juice would be a great addition to our community. Their juice is made with fresh ingredients and has many health benefits. Jamba Juice also offers “Fresh Shots” that include vitamins, nutrients, and flavor. Juice Stop does provide similar options, however their hours are limited. The addition of Jamba Juice would give people more variety in juice options.
Cheba Hut
Going to Cheba Hut is an adventure in itself. The artwork inside of the restaurant draws attention as well as their unique sandwich names. Their customer service is laid back, but they still work hard to fill your needs. Although their overall theme is smoking marijuana, you do not need to smoke in order to enjoy the experience. Cheba Hut would add a unique feel to Grand Junction as a whole and also provide more variety to the community.
To summarize it all, adding these food places to Grand Junction would increase popularity of the city. In addition, it would be a large benefit for locals and current students. Grand Junction is a great place to live, we just need some better food options.
