Gas is $6 a gallon. Elections are being won or lost on affordability. And everything just seems to be expensive lately.
You can dine at home to save money, sure.
But sometimes you just gotta take a break and let someone else do the cooking.
So we thought we’d ask, where do you eat out when the budget is tight? What restaurant? What dish, specifically? How much does it cost?

Give us specifics in the form below and we’ll share the results with you in a story.
