I love to eat.

I love to save money.

So it's only logical that one of my favorite things to do is eat on the cheap. And now I get to help others do it too.

Check out The Thrifty Gourmet. The entire site is about saving money while you cook, dine and drink ... and I'm a contributing writer!

The featured restaurants are based mostly in New York, but the tips and recipes are good for everyone everywhere. Cherry scones. Gruyere and rosemary biscuits. Vegetable pancakes (that one's from me). Yummy. You'll get hungry just looking at the pictures.
