Great place for budget-friendly restaurant gifts

I am so not a shill! I swear - I just like this site - and I've bought 4 things there now and they deliver fast and they now have food baskets so I decided to comment because I saw a Serious Eats article on Foodie Gifts. I just never comment unless I have something to say. YES - it was twice about the same site - but I mostly just peruse and drool over foodie commentary on places I can't get to. I joined to post when I saw that blog about restaurant tees a few months ago so I thought I should share hungrypotato with other Serious Eats folks, and then there was a gift blog the other day so I wanted to post again. GEEZ - I thought commenting was about sharing good ideas - I had no idea I had to vary my content or something... And TJ Maxx and Marshall's only carry things that have been on a truck forever - so watch the expiration dates on the food!

Restaurant Shirts Are the New Concert Tee

Check out HungryPotato.com - they have t-shirts and even some food from restaurants. Some are well, y'know... But I looked through and Life Cafe, Ford's Filling Station, Baby Blues BBQ and Early Girl Eatery are there and all have pretty cool t-shirts.

"I still go to concerts but rarely buy the shirts anymore. I'd like to claim I've outgrown this, but in all honesty, the obsession remains—only now restaurant shirts have replaced the concert tee."

I'm still a fan of rock tee shirts. I wear some restaurant shirts but all that often. But I agree, restaurant tee shirts are replacing rock tee shirts in some areas.

Restaurant T Shirts are very cool, but there is another style that you may not be aware of..That is the Attitude Chef T. This the shirt that many chefs wear in restaurants. While not as glamourous, it still offers a nice alternative. You can find them at most uniform web sites. I work for a Web Site that sells them. Here is the link in the event you think it may be useful. Chef Uniforms .

I do similar things. When I'm on vacation, I buy either restaurant t's OR coffee house t's. I have Joe's Crab Shack and a t from this coffee place in Baddeck, Nova Scotia. I almost bought one from a coffee place in Nags Head this past summer but never got back to the place to get it. I also regret not getting a T from Awful Arthur's in the Outer Banks. So good.

The last rock concert I went to was the Rolling Stones and the t's were so expensive ($35) that we bought one to share between the 2 of us and I bought a cap (which was still over $20).

I see someone beat me to it...I wanted to mention that I've bought t-shirts (one being my favorite ...Ford's Filling Station) at HungryPotato.com. A cool gift site!

Resto T-shirts not cool, don't be a tool.

must be out ahead of the curve because I've been collecting restaurant shirts (and caps) for years. Some of my favorites are L&B Spumoni Gardens, Grimaldi's (Brooklyn and Hoboken versions) and Cafe DuMonde. The top of my list though is the one that reads "Mangia Calamari" from this little North End treasure:
