In this, his fifth book, John Gilchrist turns his talented tastebuds toward the less expensive end of the restaurant scene in Southern Alberta—lunch under $10 and dinner under $15. "Cheap prices don't mean lousy food," says Gilchrist, Calgary's most influential food writer. "Good food can be found in Vietnamese noodle houses, hole-in-the-wall Cajun joints and one of–a–kind burger shops—to name a few."

Gilchrist's book covers more than 100 of the best food values around Calgary and area, all wrapped in the uniquely witty and robust style that has made his weekly CBC Radio One restaurant reviews a staple of many households.
