We’ve all heard the saying, “You are what you eat, so don’t be fast, cheap, easy, or fake,” but we may not necessarily agree on all counts. What’s so wrong with being cheap? (If you’re a food item, that is.) There’s almost nothing more satisfying than finding a wonderfully delicious meal that’s also affordable, and in fact, in a world where a $14 cocktail and $46 filet is somehow considered to be acceptable, it’s almost like discovering the Holy Grail. Fortunately for hungry Mile Highers we’ve got some truly tasty restaurants in Denver where you can fill ‘er up for under $10.
