My original idea was if we got enough votes for REGIONAL CUISINE in the “nomination” phase, we could all throw in our pick for a particular region in the “voting” phase - yes like Oaxaca. But as nosh pointed out, it doesn’t really work that way. But I’m willing to throw it out there again. What the hey…
I like your thoughts on seasonality too @bulavinaka.
Eggs (not caps) could get a lot of fun action @Bookwich.
CHEAP EATS
BALLER EATS
#theotherwhitemeat
SLUTTY EATS
GOOD EATS!!
Genuine question: are you nominating dishes of which the poster thinks Alton Brown would approve? 
What’s in the dish that appears to be glowing??? Looks like seafood of some sort…
That’s funny. What’s the last one?
i love CHEAP EATS but I feel like we need to set a dollar amount before you expense account bastards start posting $25pp pre tax/tip meals as if they were cheap eats.
raindrop cake, aka hipster jello.
I was thinking set a price too… $15 per meal?
that’s reasonable IMO but to accommodate the ballers I think we should round to a jackson, tax/tip included.
I don’t think the extra $5 is going to help the ballers. They can do their balling on their off time. After all, DOTM is a challenge in a way. But $20 is a good price point. That’s $20 per person?
And beverage??? 
breast implant aka water cake
a bunch of different sea creatures include firefly squid, octopus, mussels, and cockles, from takazawa in tokyo.
Agree - CHEAP EATS to me is under $10/pp 
Hilarious
Now that is a challenge @chinchi. I like it. CHEAP EATS is a good one before the holidays. Although I agree with @Ns1 that $20 would make it easier, it’s not much of a challenge though. It’s also not considered cheap eats to some. How about no more than $15 w/drink, tax, tip included (per person)? It’s not like we have to eat every meal this way. Just DOTM entries.
Hey @paranoidgarliclover - Did you notice I’m getting the hang of this multiple nominations thing? 
Most of what I eat in LA is under $20.
Some of the best meals are under $20.
It would be endless and a lot of cross posting. This month is Thai, we could pretty much repost everything in that thread.
fine, $5 cap.
