Toronto's Guide to Good, Inexpensive Restaurants
This insider's guide to good quality, high value spots saves you money and helps you explore the city's broad range of styles and neighborhoods through honest and unconventional recommendations.
"We wanted to show that it is possible to eat well on a budget," says publisher/editor Alexa Clark. "And the response has been incredible. We're already a number-1 bestseller at The Cookbook Store."
No wonder it's a bestseller. With the book being just the right size to fit into your handbag, and icons stating whether a restaurant is a contributor favorite, open late or has delivery available (to name a few), this handy guide is one you won't want to be without. Being female, I also like the "warnings" which have been included so you won't be surprised by a dodgy neighborhood or an over friendly waiter.
A comprehensive index allows readers to browse by neighborhood (even including a map of Toronto), cuisine or celebrity recommendations. The quick lists include: Are you a Vegetarian?, Eating on a Budget? Got a Hangover? and much more.
What do they consider cheap? They don't care if the place also serves some more expensive dinners, as long as the average price of a meal including taxes and a drink comes to under their price range (breakfast for under $5, lunch for under $10 or dinner for under $15) including beverage, and it must have at least one seat.
If you're looking to save some money, or just find a new place to eat, I definitely recommend cheapeats toronto. For a mere $10.95 (Canadian), you can't go wrong. For more information, or to order, visit www.cheapeats.com
