The Times staff went hunting high and low to find 25 of the city's best deals in food. Fifty-nine cents for a Roasted-spices Samosa at Bharat Bazaar & Samosa House, $30 for a three-course tasting menu at Opus, and everything in between. Enrique's in Long Beach gets a thumbs up for its Guadalajaran food, and if you have a little more to spend, head over to The Grill on the Alley in Beverly Hills. SIV gives it 2½ stars (**½).

Cooking at home? Regina Schrambling reviews Doña Tomás: Discovering Authentic Mexican Cooking. Jalapenos in this chicken could kill you. Tender Greens in Culver City shares the recipe for their Sherry Dijon Vinaigrette.

Th Wine of the Week is a "vibrant and juicy" 2004 La Spinetta Ca' di Pian Barbera d'Asti. If you're feeling creative, make beer at home.

It was called Kosher Burrito, and it served burritos with outrageous kosher pastrami! Cheap and quick and delicious!
