For those of us trying to save a little money on food, I stumbled upon this link last week (preparing for Comic-Con and some other cons I attend). I haven't tried all of these listed in the article--I've heated up canned soup and boiled some water--but if you do follow the instructions, make sure you carefully clean the appliances you'll be using, before and after. I think some of these steps are really good for small snacks or meals in the hotel room.As always, be careful with the appliances, and good luck!Here's the link: You are not allowed to view links.

I kinda want to try them in the hotel, now... ;DAnother tip if you're trying to save money on food but want something to fill you up in the morning: try going to a Mexican bakery or grocery store, they usually have a large selection of breads/pastries/croissants, usually baked fresh and they're pretty inexpensive. One year my dad and I got a bag of them and had them for breakfast/snacks with hotel coffee, because the hotel didn't offer the free breakfast until well after we'd left for the Convention Center. We also bought a jar of peanut butter and packed PB&J sandwiches for lunch every day, lol. Boring but effective!
since there's in-n-out on my way back to my hotel room in ChulaVista, we tend to eat there every nite of the conby the end we're kinda done with the food till next year, i stumbled across this list that might keep us interested tho, it the secret menu;You are not allowed to view links.

Its a Brazilian churrascaria, and you get your fill of the different types of meats that they serve. I think the dinner menu only adds two or three skewers of meat, so you don't miss much for lunch. Me and my con bud usually get out the door for 40 bucks, including drinks. It keeps me going for the rest of the Con, since my diet will then consist of pop tarts and cracker jacks :P
