Cheap eats: Where to get a feed in Perth for $10 or less
It seems like costs are going up in all aspects of life at the moment, whether it's bills, housing or groceries. So when it's time to treat yourself to a culinary outing and breaking the bank is not an option, you need a guide for where you can get a cheap but tasty feed. There is still plenty of value for money to be found in the Perth metro area and PerthNow has compiled a list to keep your stomachs heavy but your bank accounts full. Here are our top places where you can get a delicious foodie fare for $10 or under. Toasted cheddar cheese sandwich and a coffee - $10 Tucked away in the Perth CBD and as discovered by a British content creator (you can read about it here ) is one of the longer lasting CBD hot spots around, Toastface Grillah. Named in homage to American rapper Ghostface Killah of Wu-Tang Clan fame you can get a crunchy on the outside and oh-so-gooey on the inside toasted sandwich with cheddar cheese for $10, plus you get a coffee too. It's a winner! Small katsu of teriyaki chicken - $9.50 Another CBD stalwart, Taka Japanese kitchen, offers a small katsu and teriyaki chicken both served with rice for under ten dollars. You can also get a hearty warming miso soup or a couple of skewers for the loose change in your pocket. Popular with regular city-goers who are after a budget-friendly feast, this gem is worth a drop in. Interchanging specials each lunchtime - $10 Offering lunchtime specials of interchanging dishes (sometimes the roast ducks you can see hanging in the window) for $10 available in their Northbridge and East Victoria Park stores. You won't regret it if you end up with the mouth-watering tender duck with perfectly crispy skin as you soak up the kitsch interior and bustling ambience of both restaurants. Vietnamese salad or banh mi - $10 If you haven't made a stop past the Coventry Village food court for some seriously good, seriously fresh food, you've been missing out and need to get there, quickly. High on the list of must-trys in one of Morley's favourite eating destinations is Roll vs Bowl where you can get a bowl of hearty, delicious Vietnamese salad or a banh mi roll for ten dollars and both are seriously good and seriously good value. Most pretzel's on the menu - $7-9 With few items on the menu over ten dollars and most sitting between $7-$9 PerthNow had to include Pretzel in our list. Cheese is a big fixture on the savoury options and you can snag a deliciously topped pretzel with cheese and garlic ($7.5), cheese and pepperoni ($8.5) or cheese and bacon ($9). Lovers of the gooey godsend will be in their element. You can also grab some sweet varieties for under ten dollars too, including one covered in nutella. Yum! Banh Mi - $8.50-$9 When Katy Perry was recently in town, her and her staff went crazy for one particular CBD banh mi joint (you can read more about it here ) but we think it's not the only must try spot in town. Serving up the fresh and tasty buns for a decent price is Bite My Banh Mi in Morley. The delicious Vietnamese baguettes have a large selection all available for under ten dollars, they also have a nice selection of other offerings including noodle and rice bowls (for a bit more than ten dollars) as well as some Vietnamese sweet drinks. Burger and a drink - $5 Five dollars hardly buys you a decent cup of coffee these days but at The Mustang Bar in Northbridge on a Wednesday night, you can get a burger and a drink for just that! It's aimed at the backpacker contingent in the area as well as students but that's not essential to take up the deal and when you purchase one of the burgers you get entry to the pool competition for the night as well as some live music! There are limited spots for the pool competition so get down early if you want to partake. Dumplings - Ten for $10 A fancy cocktail bar in the CBD is not a place you would suspect to find cheap eats, but Goody Two's in Hibernian Place offer $1 dollar dumplings on a Wednesday night. So you get 10 for $10 and with the money saved you can splurge on some sexy sounding cocktails including the 'passenger princess' which features pavlova vodka or the 'red moon' which includes red fruit sherbet. It's got everything a cocktail bar should have, low lighting, delightful drinks and now, cheap eats! Bratwurst in a bun - $10.50 For an extra fifty cents we have a bonus cheap eats for you, just over budget at $10.50. Serving up sausages (or more specifically, bratwursts) to hungry visitors at Fremantle Markets since 2004 is the Bratwurst Bar. Slightly over budget at $10.50, they're worth the extra coin as they have no preservatives are low in fat but high in flavour and come in pork, beef and currywurst flavours. The business is run by the incredibly friendly and enthusiastic Tony so head on down to the port city and get a decent feed at a very decent price.

Man attempts a day out in Perth with a $50 budget
Perth locals and visitors alike will announce that we are an expensive city — especially during a cost-of-living crisis. However, British content creator George Redfern has put together a video on 'how to' enjoy Perth with only $50 for a full day of eating, activities and getting around. In the video, Redfern explores the city on a Sunday where, with a valid SmartRider, travel on trains, buses and ferries is currently free. He headed to Kings Park, commenting on the views and lush fauna, then made his way to the CBD to popular local toasted sandwich shop Toastface Grillah, spending $10 for his coffee and snack. George Refern Credit: YouTube Redfern then travelled to Herrison Island to see the kangaroos. His activities took him for a hit at the Wembley Golf Course driving range ($13) and then a takeaway alcoholic drink on Cottesloe beach ($5) — with the creator failing to realise drinking alcohol in public places is illegal in Western Australia and can attract up to a $2,000 fine. That could have put a serious dent in his budget. He finished the day in Subiaco, where he ate a plate of fish and chips for dinner. He added that he was surprised by the $18 price tag and the crispness of the chips, something he had not experienced in his native UK. He added a can of soft drink for $3. His total for the day was $49. Whether the creator has shown the best sides of Perth on a budget, or is just after hits and subscribers, is up to locals to decide. George Redfern has nearly five thousand YouTube subscribers and a moderate following on social media with his videos focusing on travelling on a budget — often staying at accommodation on the lower end of the market. After landing in Perth, Redfern put his content creation skills to good use showcasing his take on things sandgropers take for granted.
