Timeout New York's Cheap Eats issue is out (not available online without an online subscription). Their picks are organized into food groups, including "The 24-hour Snacker," "The Daring Diner," "The Compulsive Carnivore," "The Carbo Loader," "The Liquid Dieter," "The Kosher Keeper," "The Food Snob," "The Tofu Fighters," "The Galloping Gourmet," and. "the Total Cheapass".
The "Food Snob" category includes 5 "epicureans" and their favorite cheap eats. Jeffery Steingarten likes the "succulent, prize-winning" hamburger at Peter Luger for lunch ($6), an order of xiao long bao at Joe's Ginger ($4.25), and Otakfuku's okonomoyaki (savory pancakes) ($7).
My favorite cheap eats would have to include an order of dumplings at Fried Dumpling ($1), $1 Sushi at Mori, and brunch at 7A.
What are your favorite cheap eats?
