What in the World is a Meat-and-Three?
The simplest definition is a dining establishment that serves an entree consisting of one meat (protein) and three sides. Most often, the sides are vegetables, but can sometimes be other items, such as mac-n-cheese or fruit or a type of dessert.
Many of these "mom and pop" restaurants often serve a meat-and-two while some offer a meat-and-one as well as veggie plates, which usually include three or four sides/veggies of your choice.
For our purposes, we focus on restaurants, diners and cafes which include at least a meat-and-two plate on their menu, while recognizing the diversity of categories in which they can specialize.
You'll find ample ways to search for one of these unique places on our site.
