Hotstepper: Something tells me you have never been hard up for cash. And you think that makes you civilized. If that's not the case, what do YOU do when you either can't or do not choose to shell out enough money for a "civilized" meal in a restaurant? Or even a fast-food joint, for inferior food? Go hungry? Sad.

Watch all the garbage pile up on these eyesores.

just don't call it street art.

Most unconventional place I've dined?

How about standing up with something easy like a sandwich, wrap, or salad.

Cute idea, I guess.
