Best Cheap Breakfast

Breakfast is supposed to be the most important meal of the day -- and given the size of the breakfasts at Kathy and Bill's Diner, it could be the only meal of the day. If you want to get the most for your money in our sour economy, head over to this genuinely friendly eatery, where that buck -- and your waistline -- will stretch like a bungee cord. The kitchen cooks up six breakfasts for just $3.49 and doesn't skimp on them, either: they include three -- count 'em, three -- eggs with meat, potatoes and toast; monstrous pancakes; and the Havana muffin (covered with ham, cheese and eggs, and big enough to eclipse the sun). Kathy and Bill will satisfy every hunger pain -- and they'll do it with a smile.
