I just left DC about two weeks ago, and I already miss the Ethiopian. The takeout veggie combo at the place across the street from me was $12 but provided dinner for two, or three meals for a single person. @cuminafterall Ethiopian food!

There is always a crowd and it's true, the place further down on Pell has equally delicious soup dumplings and it's not as crowded. Good luck finding Pell, it's an obscure little street. My cabbie took me to Pearl Street! @janestreet I’ve been to Joe’s dozens of times and it’s true, get the dumplings (I can eat 8 myself!) and a couple other dishes and you will have a reasonably priced feast.

My problem is that I strongly dislike eggs. I've ordered sausage and cheese or bacon and cheese NO EGG on a bagel hundreds of times in the five years I've lived here, and they've gotten it right maybe 60% of the time. Still nice to be able to get a decent bagel almost anywhere here, with the exception of Inwood, where I've lived for two years. I miss Brooklyn. NY resident.

Govindas near Ottawa U Campus has pay what you can vegetarian/vegan food (select hours as it is also a prayer center), most places offer some sort of blue plate 5 dollar breakfast, pho is about 5 dollars for a small, which is like a liter of soup plus meat and veg, Zak's diner has Nachos Calvin (omnomnom bacon cheese sour cream and table onions with guac)for like 10 bucks and it lasts for like 2 or three meals (get the pickles on the side young paduan... cheap and delicious). Not to mention the fab Manx which when I too my mum out for breakfast came up to 30 dollar for two plates plus juice plus scones plus coffee and amazing service, which I will always pay a little more for.

There's also a lot of really good, cheap vietnamese. In Ottawa Pho places are definitely the cheapest ones, but Ottawa is a lot pricier for restaurants than Toronto. @Robin Toronto’s the same, though it depends on the neighbourhood sometimes.

There is a bakery on every corner selling tasty sandwiches, and you can get a döner for less than a fiver. In southern Germany, it’s baked goods and döner kebab.

And cheesesteak, of course, but as a vegan they don't really register as food to me. In Philly you will find soft pretzels and falafel on every corner.

Mike, as long as street carts are on your radar, wait till the weather is cooler and have a knish! With mustard, which the vendor will put INSIDE the knish, yummmm. Boston is having Chowderfest on Sunday, when the high temperature is forecast to be 91 degrees. Hot shellfish and dairy -- I want to puke just thinking about it. New Yorker stuck in Boston here.
