"In 2002, Rachael Ray set off across North America and Europe with a budget of $40 a day for meals. The celebrity chef's show, aptly titled "$40 a Day," aired until 2005 on Food Network. Throughout these three seasons, Ray visited popular cities and tourist spots in search of unique, budget-friendly meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. She avoided massive fast food chains like McDonald's or Burger King, opting for more localized but still affordable options."
"Opting to try this experiment in New York City, my goal was to find three reputable food spots and get some filling, flavorful meals that stuck to Ray's original $40 budget from over two decades ago. I sought to include trendy spots to prove that you can still eat well and get those Instagram-worthy food shots without breaking your wallet."
In 2002 Rachael Ray traveled across North America and Europe on a $40-per-day meals budget and hosted the show $40 a Day through 2005 on Food Network. Ray visited popular cities and tourist spots looking for unique, budget-friendly breakfast, lunch, and dinner options while avoiding massive fast-food chains and favoring localized affordable eateries. Adjusted for inflation, $40 from 2002 equals roughly $72 today. A modern experiment in New York City sought three reputable, trendy food spots that deliver filling, flavorful, Instagram-worthy meals without exceeding the original $40 daily constraint. The first recommended stop is Radio Bakery in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn.
