People are even less price sensitive at restaurants. They’ve been doing this longer than fast food has.
Last week I spent $21 on two California rolls and a miso soup. I felt scammed and won’t go back there.
I spent half an hour today searching my area for good lunch specials. Ended up getting a cup of soup and a scoop of chicken salad for $12.
I’ll have to travel about 20 minutes to another side of the city to try some lunch specials at a Chinese place and see if that’s any better.
This situation IS getting ridiculous enough that someone can come along with an actual good deal and make money on volume again. But in this decade that’s a radical, risky business plan.
Sushi is expensive in general. I can’t really comment on soup and chicken salad since I’m not much of a fan of either. I usually go for Chinese or Thai for the best deals. When fast food is charging $6 just for a burger, I’d rather pay $10 for Pad Thai. Yes it’s more expensive, but the value is much better.
Or I could just eat at a proper restaurant.
I hate to tell you this, but…
