I discovered one of these food courts inside what I thought was a medical building. Everyone there was Asian so you know the food is legit. Im in Canada and $15 gets me a packed container of food overflowing. It costs almost $20 with tax to go grab a whopper meal. There’s also an Afghan place near me that will give you a big container filled with rice and salad, a soup container filled with Rajma masala and a side of naan for $8
There’s a burger commercial in my country where a guy is pleasantly shocked to learn his burger is. ONLY $5. $5 for one a la carte burger is somehow supposed to make me say “oh that’s cheap!” All it does is remind me that they used to cost $2 five years ago.
Hey, but at least your pay also went up 150%!
I have a local burger joint at which I can still get a $2 cheeseburger. It’s plain and everything is an up charge but that’s fine. A whopper or Big Mac clone is some $4.50, so like, it’s still pretty cheap.
However, they have no seating, and it’s an old ice cream shop so just a big kitchen and a tiny indoor order/pickup window and 2 benches. And there’s always a massively long line. Takes easily an hour to get fast food there during peak, cuz nobody goes to the local depressed millennial McDonald’s (one of those sad gray ones)
