The inflation for meals out just blows me away...

$18 for a cup of soup menu.bevri.com

$21 for egg & cheese toast menu.bevri.com

I guess that is what happens when you have a good memory and it doesn't seem that long ago when I left HP (in 1998) with my last regular paycheck and could get a Chinese lunch special with tip for $6 in Palo Alto...

My guess is these restaurants are targeting the top 5% who spend most of what they make...

Check out my article:
