Would you pay $12 for a plate of food?

[King Belieal]

My friend is a caterer and she invited me to the restaurant where she works. It is one of these kinds of luxury restaurants. It was at that place that I understood that people can spend money. The least amount that you can buy a plate of food there is $12.

Can you eat just one single meal for $12? Do you consider it a waste of money?

For me l am very curious about my way of spending. With that in account l couldn't spend that much for just a plate of food.

Yes, it is expensive. I won't spend that much money for a meal. I wonder what are the things they serve in the plate.

I would spend this much on a date, but given the normal restaurant prices where I live, I'm not sure if it's worth it. However, if you want to take your partner on a date, that's fine.

With this amount they ask for, it is supposed to be fine dining. That depends on what type of food they serve. If it's really good, I may spend it on special occasions.

In my kind of country, that's the two week salary of some casual workers in my country. That's extravagance for my level.

There are many dishes in my country that cost that or more, I have paid that amount for a dish in the past, I would not do it again.

With that $12, I would prepare a meal that would last me for not less than three days. I won't spend that amount on just one plate.

I have experienced it and I was stunned. I ordered a one big box Shakeys pizza for take out. I was shocked when I was charge $15. If could only return it lol. I never buy again. I better bought all legs chicken joy at Jolibee.

I can't spend $12 on just one plate of meal when I know I can cook something good with that money

 

[King Belieal]

It is only people that eat out that pay these outrageous prices for food. People that are financially conscious would take that amount to prepare food at home.

 

[freelancermaria]

I need to factor in what the menu will be. I am not willing to shell out $12 for a plate of food these days. It is just not practical. I'd rather put that money towards buying groceries.

$12 for a plate of food is a bit on the high side in our currency. That amount would be enough to cook something small, but it would last you more than a plate.

Average price here if you go on the restaurant so I would pay this much however only if the food is good lol
