Shipley Do-nuts



Ask any native Houstonian and they will probably tell you that Shipley's has the best donuts in town. It all started in 1936 when Lawrence Shipley formulated the recipe for pretty much the best donut in the world. Since then Shipley's has expanded to dozen of locations around Houston and now to several surrounding states. Overall, you could start off your morning with a mouth watering donut, a delicious sausage and cheese kolache (for you out of state folks it is similar to the "pigs in a blanket" concept) and a cup of coffee- all for 3-4 bucks!

Everyone in the CoFo office is a fan of Shipley's! Here are a couple of pics of Coach Trey, Dustin, and Christi modeling for Shipley's!

Torchy's Tacos

The other weekend College Forward coaches went out to eat at the legendary Torchy's Tacos. It is a DELICIOUS eatery that is located within the 610 loop at Shepherd near Westheimer. Torchy's originally started in Austin, TX and has since expanded to Dallas and more recently Houston. They specailize in unique tacos at a very decent price as their tacos range from $3.25-$4.75. Customers can also try the green chile queso and chips, the "Nookies" (which are deep fried cookie dough balls!) and Maine Root soda. Overall, it is a favorite spot amongst the CoFo Houston crew so be sure to check it out!
