Our Aussie compatriots provide us with two great places for a "Pie n" Peas" at low cost... Harry's Cafe de Wheels in Woolloomooloo, Sydney... http://www.harryscafedewheels.com.au/ and Yatala Pie Shop, in Queensland, South of Brisbane... http://www.around-oz.com/best_in_oz/bakeries/yatala.htm

I'll be tucking into grub at these two places in a couple months and can hardly wait.

In my own "neck o' the woods," there's the great In n' Out Burger chain... http://www.in-n-out.com/ and for a decent, snappy-skinned hot dog with chili that sticks to everything it comes in contact with, there's world-famous Pink's... http://www.pinkshollywood.com/ I actually had a business lunch at Pink's the other day with a well-known Hollywood Type... People were so involved in their eats that only the tourists were eyeballing him and one came over and asked for an autograph. The fellow signed a paper that the youngster provided and then pressed his chili thumbprint under that! We got a good laugh out of that!
