We’ve all been there: you’re wandering a beautiful European city, your stomach is growling, and every restaurant menu looks like a mortgage payment. Then, you turn a corner and find it. The perfect, cheap, life-changing meal.

For me, it was a €4 Margherita pizza from a literal hole-in-the-wall in Naples. I ate it sitting on a stone step while watching Vespas zip by, and it tasted better than any $50 sit-down dinner I’ve ever had.

I want to hear your stories! Whether it’s a street-side gyro in Athens, a "Milk Bar" feast in Poland, or a massive baguette sandwich from a Parisian boulangerie—what is the best meal you’ve found for under $10 (or €10)?

Tell us:

1. The Dish: What was it?

2. The Location: Which city/shop?

3. The Price: Roughly what did it cost?
