The CheapEats Photo of the Week is 200609_09_05 - DiRienzo's taken by MyUtopian.

No matter how many times I see it, I still love this photo.

It came into my radar when I heard about last year's Di Rienzo's Sandwich Appreciation Day - May 12. I wonder if there will be another one this year. Anyone? Anyone?

Photo of the Week: Beavertail

Our first ever is beavertail taken by pagehalffull.

As the snow finally starts to vanish and spring begins, it's time to celebrate with, you guessed it, another Beavertail ($3.50-4.75)... because they are great any season.

What's on Your Must Try List?

As part of the next edition of **, and for the blog, we are compiling a list of the 100 Must Try Dishes in Ottawa, (all Cheap Eats of course) and we have reserved 20 spots on the list for your recommendations. 

We've already built the list to 80 dishes - from things every Ottawan should have tried (like The Work's Tower or Rings) to more exotic dishes that prove you are a serious culinary adventurer (like fried Quay Teow from Chahaya Malaysia). 

But to make sure we aren't missing a thing, we wanted to invite you to have your voice heard on what you think the Must Try dishes in Ottawa are. 

What do you think should be on the list? 

What things do you think visitors to Ottawa should not miss?

Do you think you are only a real Ottawan if you have had hot beaver tail while skating on the canal?

Is there something you order just to see if your friends will try it, and if they don't, you'll eat it because it's so damned good?

We'd love to hear about it!  Add your "Must Try" dishes to the below or email them to lex [at] cheapeatsottawa [dot] com.

Some other items already on the list include a Mello's breakfast special (preferably at 4am), Laksa from Singapore Restaurant, dim sum at Mandarin Ogilvie,  , and Escargot Forestière from Pizza’za. 

 

   

** BTW - We're down to the short strokes for getting the next edition of Cheap Eats Ottawa finished and to the printers and it looks like it'll be in bookstores in January.  More on that soon!
