For $5 fast food or resturants?

Resturants as in like Chinese Resturant, Indian Cuisine, all those place where you get real cooked food from chef's.

Fast food, the heck I don't need to describe that, Pizza places counts also.

If you can buy a meal for $5 from any food places where would you eat for $5?

And you are far away from homeand you can't ask anyone else to buy it for you!

Indian and Chinese restaurants aren't "real cook food from chefs" they're designed to be cooked like fast food and that is why they don't even taste 1/10th as good as the real thing, home-made. I mean, biryani from Indian restaurants was used to poison Satan's children. American fast food wins for me.

I don't know of any non-fast food, "real" restaurants where you can get much of anything for $5. An appetizer maybe, but that's about it. And with the tip it would probably still come out to more than $5.

$5 isn't even enough for a value meal at most fast food places these days. They're usually more like $7.

Five bucks?? I could get three slices of pizza and a pop from one of the sketchy pizza places near my office, maybe. Or half a sub. Or a couple of double cheeseburgers and fries from McDonalds. Or a beer from the pub across the street.

It totally depends where you eat, every resturants is different also depends on what food you buy unlike fast food, they have way more choice than fast food.

You need to know what food to buy. I know America has the worst resturants in the world. I'm glad I don't live there cause of that.

Note: Don't always eat fried stuff.

I don't live in the US, I live in a country where 15% of the population is Indian, and Indian food still sucks in restaurants, it tastes terrible. But when my mom cooks at home, it's the best :)

Not a big fan of chineese food and I don't like to go sit down their so I would have to go with the fast food. It's fast and easy and having it every once in a while is not going to kill you.

Chinese food. You get like 2-4 meals, depending on what you buy there.

I alway go to a small chinese restaurant near where I live. I buy foods here every week. It's like 6$ for a soup, a egg roll and your meals. He makes the best general Tao's chicken on earth I swear :P Mcdonald is like 7$+ for a meal that never really make me full. Sometime, taking a chance by going into a small restaurant is more rewarding than going to fast-food and it's more healthy ;)
