"The Meal: Lamb Over Rice, $8.99  If anybody needs a budget meal, it’s students who have sad, shi*ty Top Ramen in a steady rotation. Everything at this University City Indian food truck is better than microwaveable noodles, and it’s all under $10. When we’re here, we go for the lamb over rice. The meat is cubed and is supremely juicy thanks to the curry sauce it’s in. And if you spent the last of your cash on an ancient copy of The Principles of Economics, you can pay with almost any payment app. " - candis mclean
