fresh cheeses, special coffees, giant pickles or that fantastic
local mustard we've forgotten the name of, Zingerman's is
the place to go.
BEST NEW RESTAURANT: McDonald's
It was refreshing to see an offbeat new eatery like
McDonald's come onto the Ann Arbor food scene this year.
They're already so successful that they're giving away $36
million dollars in a promotional contest. P.S. Talk of
franchising is definitely true.
BEST FOOD BARGAIN: Steve's Lunch
An interesting combination of American and Korean
standards - beef, eggs and bean sprouts (called Bim Bamr
Bop by some) is not an unusual concoction. The portions are
enormous. Standing room only, most days between 11 and 1,
since those lazy U-Towers people are always there.
BEST PLACE TO TAKE THE FOLKS: Gandy Dancer
You really find out how fast those Amtraks move. The
whole building shakes. Your parents will love it. We're
suckers for escargot and pushovers for those raw oysters, but
for the less squeamish, poached salmon with mayonnaise and
dill sauce will hook them.
BEST DORM CAFETERIA: South Quad
Defying all reason, people were actually able to rank their
cafeterias in terms of Bestness. South Quad was second to
"none," in the negative sense.

BEST FIGHT: Bryan Deasley
During a bench clearing brawl against Ferris State, the
Wolverine freshman used one of the Bulldogs as a punching
bag. Deasley's victim who had his shirt and pads ripped off
resembled a performer at Jason's. When the linesman who
broke up the melee skated away, Deasley landed numerous
other blows for good measure.
WORST REFEREE'S CALL: Brian Hart
The CCHA official whistled Michigan for too many men
on the ice with just over a minute to play in its opening
round playoff game against Michigan State at East Lansing.
The power play enabled to Spartans to tie the contest which
they later won in overtime. The call couldn't have had
anything to do with the 15,000 fans the Spartans bring to
Joe Louis with them for the CCHA Final Four?
WORST JINX: The Rose Bowl
The Wolverines losing the Rose Bowl is almost as certain
as scandals in the Southwest Conference.
BEST DRESSED: Roy Tarpley
The Dallas Maverick returned to Ann Arbor for the Purdue
game sporting purple leather pants, a purse, and enough
chains around his neck to make even Mr. T proud.
WORST DRESSED: Mike Grant
The basketball graduate assistant wore a pair of fire-engine
red chinos at a mid-winter home game that had bulls charging
from miles around.

BEST MEN'S CLOTHING STORE: Bivouac
Rugged types will love the outdoor outfitters, and the city
boys will go gaga over the cotton socks and designer
everything. They've got an excellent selection of Levis 501s,
including those funny sizes for those of you with waists
wider than your legs are long. Some worthwhile bargains can
be found at the seasonal clearance sales.
BEST WOMEN'S CLOTHING STORE: Jacobson's
A close finish between Jake's and Bivouac, with Jake's
pulling ahead. Both stores are fashionably up-to-date, but for
all-around selection, the department store wins out.
BEST THRIFT/USED CLOTHING STORE:
The Cat's Meow
We saw a green taffeta dress shot with silver threads there
the other day, just like June Cleaver's. Need we say more?
BEST SHOE STORES: Shoe Hut / Mast
A tie between Shoe Hut, famous for their rubbersoled
sensibles, and Mast, with the most high heels on Earth.
Kinney made a good showing.
BEST GROCERY: Kroger
Since Ann Arbor is the site of the second largest Kroger
in Michigan, it's not suprising that it won first place. Any
store whose name becomes a verb earns our respect.
BEST GIFT STORE: Middle Earth
Totally weird, far out to the max. If you have a friend that
has everything, or is just plain bizarre, this is the place to go
for the birthday gift. Star Trek, Gary Larson, Buckwheat, and
Gumby products, not to mention inflatable Tyrannosauri and
outrageous greeting cards, are all crammed into the South U.
shop. A great place to go when you need something different.
BEST COPY SHOP: Kinko's II
Best copy shop and best copy of an already great copy
shop. Since the same businesses win these categories every
year, maybe we should just hire Kinko's to run off copies of
last year's Best Of.
WORST FANS: Wolverine Fans
No discussion needed.
The Library of the Law Quadrangle, a most handsome edifice.

BEST LIQUOR STORE: Village Corner
Sure, VC is a great place to buy liquor, as long as they
don't confiscate your ID, cross out your eyes, and display it
behind the counter. Maybe there ought to be a category for
the undergrads here - "Best Place to Buy Liquor If You're
Under 21."
BEST BOOK STORE: Border's
Borders could win this title in almost any city. Here, the
competition is, sadly, dwindling. Quite a few people are still
mourning the loss of U-Cellar, and voted in its memory. So
long, Wobblies, we'll miss you.
BEST USED BOOK STORES: David's / The
Dawn Treader
Dawn Treader, with it's two locations, caught up with
David's this year after last year's close finish. Both offer
mazes of low-priced books and hours of browsing pleasure,
plus the great musty smell of rotting paperbacks that gives
book lovers chills.
BEST RECORD STORE: Schoolkid's Records
Is there another record store in town?
BEST USED RECORD STORE: Wazoo
It's only a matter of time before the merchandise in
Wazoo ends up downstairs in Ashley's restaurant. Those
records are heavy. A cool selection ranges between fantastic
and frightening (who is Princess Tinymeat? Do we really
want to know?) and you can trust the quality.
BEST CANDY STORE: Drakes
Every dentist in town cackles with glee when they think
about those delicious carmel-pecan clusters that pull out
fillings, or that cavity-generating candy corn. Drakes has the
Best selection. Period.
A truism.
