Every college community has at least one establishment cherished by students campus-wide. The only two requirements for this coveted honor are good food and cheap prices. At UCLA, the honor goes to Diddy Riese. The name doesn't sound like much, but students in-the-know make study break pilgrimages to snack on unbelievably cheap fresh-baked cookies, muffins, brownies, Dreyers ice cream, hot dogs and cookie ice cream sandwiches -- with many treats under 50 cents or a buck. Sorority presidents stock up on dozens of goods for their houses, while USC students forgo school pride and line up in enemy territory for a taste. The spanking white, clean interior brings back so many memories for alumnae that they still go back after they've graduated. Those who know the place best avoid it during finals -- unless their sweet-tooth craving is so intense as to make joining the long line extending outside the store a necessity. -- Phuong-Cac Nguyen

    Diddy Riese is really a LA secret, not too many people know about it. Ice cream sandwhiches for a buck, milk for a quarter. YUMMY.

    My family goes whenever we get a chance, which is often! We always get requests from our friends to get them some cookies and we call in our dozens ahead and the orders ready when they say it will be! Love this place~

    on any given night, the line is long,..but it goes fast... but the night was hot and icecream cold... it was perfect.. tables outdoors to eat this delicious indulgence. icecream between two jumbo cookies.. flavors created by god himself.. all your favorite flavors and the cookies, warm, soft, chewy, just like mom's and .. so many choices...... and not extravagantly priced.. can't decide which cookie? you can mix and match...DO NOT miss this TREAT!!!!start your diet TOMORROW!!!!!
