It’s 11:30 p.m. on a Thursday night. You have a serious case of the munchies. The dining halls aren’t open, and your Grab and Go supplies are critically low. What are your options? Well, you could go to Reckers, get a vibrating, flashing thing and still be waiting 45 minutes later. You could battle the crowds at LaFortune. You could order a pizza and hope the Papa’s not too busy. But if you’re one of Dillon’s Big Red, why bother? After all, just down the hall is Notre Dame’s best kept culinary secret — Bullwinkle’s. The late-night dining option that bills itself as “the original and still the best,” Bullwinkle’s is one of the few and proud dorm eateries at SHAWNA MONSON/The Observer Notre Dame.
