IMO anything but a diet of rice and beans is a waste of money.

Honestly, all restaurant food is more expensive than making it at
home.  A bowl of ramen in a good restaurant is light-years better
than making it from a packet.  The ramen they use are not the dried,
pre-fried things in the packet.  Either they make their own, or they
use a decent brand like Sun ramen.
