What is the best meal for the least amount of money that you ever had?

We have a steakhouse here that makes the BEST Ribs ever!! Its only 16$ for a rack of them. My hunny and I usually split one of those and a blooming onion. We only spent 25$ for us both to eat really good ribs. I left full and satisfied!

Hi friend i cant even give money for the nice meal i eat.I think no one in the world can give money to that person.That person is none other than mother friend.Till now i am eating food cooked by my mother... Have a nice day........

well just the other day i was walking around the business district i passed along a small eating place with 4 tables and the place was full of people (it was lunchtime) some were waiting for a table some were buying for take out. my curiousity got me so i joined the line, when it was my turn i ordered 2 pieces pork barbecue, mixed vegetable, rice, 1 piece banana plus clear beef soup (on the house) and when i saw the bill it was just 62 pesos. i was so shocked that it was so cheap that i had to ask the cashier how do they make money if their prices is so cheap, and believe me the place was clean and airconditioned at that and the servers wore uniforms and hairnets. the cashier just looked at me and smiled.

This is going back a long way but you did ask the question. ;) In the sixties I was a student at a South African university although I lived in Zimbabwe. After the first journey there by train, I swore I would never go by train again - it took three nights and two days and I cannot sleep on trains. Since I had no transport, the only alternative was to hitch-hike. The distance was 1,200 miles and, if I timed it right and was lucky with rides, I could do it in 24 hours. And that was how I found out about Louis Trichardt. Louis Trichardt is a small town at the northern edge of South Africa's highveld. Behind it the Soutpansberg Mountains rise as a barrier that must be passed before dropping down to the lowveld beyond and eventually the Limpopo River, the border between South Africa and Zimbabwe. And Louis Trichardt is an isolated little paradise compared to the hot, dry and dusty little towns you have to pass through on the way north. I think it must be the mountain breezes that cool the atmosphere and make it seem so fresh and restful. The inhabitants, too, are more cheerful and easygoing than in other towns. Being so far away from any other towns, perhaps they still saw strangers as guests to be welcomed. Whatever the reason, Louis Trichardt became an important goal for me in my travels up and down that road. Going north, it felt as though I was nearly home as I left the highveld; going south, it was a chance to steel oneself before pressing on into the tension that was South Africa at the time. But there was another reason I used to look forward to Louis Trichardt - the restaurants and cafés provided the most amazing mixed grills I have ever encountered. Everything was piled high on the plate, a wonderful fry-up (yes, I know it's frowned on these days - back then it did us no harm because the food police hadn't yet declared it a no-no), eggs, bacon, sausages, toast, beans, steak, french fries, you name it, it was included. Whether the eateries were in the midst of a price war or just didn't know that the outside world charged much more I don't know, but the prices were ridiculously low. Fifty cents was nothing in those days but they never asked a penny more in the two years I regularly passed through the town. It may seem a strange choice for the best meal I've ever had but, to a hungry hitch-hiker, it was heaven. Even now I look back on those meals with nostalgia and wish both that good, simple food could be had as cheap today and that I were young enough again to devour such a hug plateful! Well, you DID ask... ;)
