What: Chicken Kebab on Nan, Pork Dumplings

Where: Silk Road Express (3400 North Charles St., Johns Hopkins Homewood)

How Much: $8.96

Synopsis: Slightly nestled in a courtyard (Martin Center) just off of Charles on the Hopkins campus, Silk Road boasts a wide variety of Asian and Mediterranean cuisine and it is cheaaaap. The pork dumplings (8!) were only $3.95, I figured as an “appetizer” it would be fairly small but it actually ended up being a meal in and of itself. I had to take the kebab sandwich home for dinner!

If you go, try any of their combination platters. Under $6, with lots of sides and options to choose from.
