Great summary Bozz. That was a comprehensive list and really good to know if you plan to goto Burlington or the NE.
$80-100 per meal seems quite a lot. I think one of the top restaurants here I spent just €25 or so for myself, food and a beer. You guys seem to really pay more there. I wonder why it is so expensive?
I don't understand how people choose to take drugs and go down that route in life. It's not as if kids don't see and learn about it from an early age how bad it is.
Yeah, I think part of it is inflation, but there is also other stuff at play I think. Some areas are just more expensive. When the average cost of a dish is $20, then drinks are $5 a piece, plus an appetizer at $10 or more, it all adds up. Especially if you are out walking around and you feel like having more than one drink because you don't have to worry about driving. The drug thing is a tough one for sure. I think there are a lot of reasons. Some of them not as unbelievable as you might think. Prescription drug addiction hasn't helped with that either. Once you see how someone can progress from Oxy to heroin on the street, it's a bit easier to understand.
