I was in Chattanooga for a couple days recently and that means I finally have a chance to try out some new cheap eats!
Our first night there I wanted to hit Bea’s on Dodd’s Ave. for dinner, unfortunately it closed at 8 and it was already 7:30 when we got directions from our hotel. Not this night. But don’t worry, we will make it there!
Going back to the drawing board I found Read the rest of this entry »
Now that you know how to eat at a cheap restaurant in New York here is a list for Cheap Eats in New York from New York Magazine.
This site almost exclusively discusses the best in Cheap Eats, however, that posses some problems. For the uninitiated that are used to full service and high class restaurants its like a guy from New Jersey trying to pump his own gas for the first time-scary, difficult, and messy.

Here is a link to a posting on another blog about San Diego cheap eats.
Only Ikea, the store that made cheap partical board trendy, can deliver trendy food at prices just as cheap. I had forgotten about Ikea’s food until a recent trip to Atlanta. I didn’t get a chance to dig in this day, but I hope to get back there soon for a cheap dinner! Here is a good review I found on another site.
I haven’t been eating out or traveling a lot lately so it’s been difficult to update this site. However, I did stumble across a great blog posting from Mike Malvey’s Northern Colorado Blog. Kids Eat FREE of Cheap!!! shows when you can feed the kids for free or little at local restaurants. Check it out before your next trip to that part of the country.

Apparently Nashvillians are having some issues with the increasing Hispanic population. Personally, I’m glad to live in a place with lots of Mexican restaurants to choose from. Now, in my part of town (the eastern suburb of Mt. Juliet) most people talk about El Rey Mexican restaurant (in a strip mall near the interstate on Mt. Juliet Rd).
