The cheap lunch thread

[zageek]

As always the costs of eating lunch seems to go up and up, as for taking sandwiches to work meh I had enough of those. In my quest to find the cheapest lunch deals I found you can still get decent value for money and eat something for under R20 bucks heres my current top five in cape town:

1. Romans Pizza lunch time special, can of pepsi and a small pizza with 2 toppings - R19.90

2. Burger Fair in brackenfell - cheap and nice, burger and chips for like R15

3. Fruit and Veg Food lovers market/Freshstop (many of them opening up)- lots of nice healthy stuff and really cheap. For R20 bucks you can walk out with a nice filling panini and pancakes, or even a boerewors roll and a nice bowl of salad etc etc. Freshtops are bit more expensive but still good value.

4. Steers good guy burger - Rave burger and chips R20 fills you up.

5. Picknpay deli - nice fresh chicken and chips for under R15

Please share yours so we call all find good deals

How does that fill you up? :wtf:

2 slices of low GI seeded bread, with a banana or avocado filling - fills u up lekker.
A high protein bar, handful of raw almonds and a cup of coffee - nice

6 sandwiches a day + an apple as a snack works well for me.

And coffee seems to supress any early hunger cravings
