In Egypt.

£E10.45/US$1.83.

It comes with the same Big Mac sauce, just with breaded and fried chicken patties (as in their Chicken Sandwiches) instead of beef.

It's hilariously large, but flat like a pancake. I tried a Quarter Pounder and it was the same way: large and flat. Do Egyptians judge value based on surface area???

NT$85/US$2.58.

I've been looking for a good Taiwanese-style pork chop over rice ever since I moved back here last summer. I've tried countless shops and while most of them were decent, none of them rocked my world

That is, until now.

This is the original shop of NYC's Mei Wah (on Hester Street in Chinatown). Mei Wah is the only place in Manhattan that I could get a little taste of home when I lived in New York. I've been going there since the late 80s and even though it's gotten a little worse every year, I still went at least once a month. That was how desperate I was for Taiwanese food

Get some high quality steaks. Grind on some salt and pepper, coat it with a dab of oil. Sear both sides on high heat and finish in a 500° oven until medium rare. And you'll be in beef heaven, all for less than 10 minutes of cooking effort.
