A photo of an insanely expensive ham and cheese croissant in Melbourne has perfectly summed up the state of dining out in Australia.
Some users compared the high cost to their recent purchases, with one noting they paid $10.90 for a croissant and a coffee the day before.“These used to be my weekend staple but Ive stopped since everyone is charging $10+. Its not justified charging this much for $3 worth of food,” another person wrote.
“I wouldn’t pay that much at an airport owned by Macquarie Bank, let alone somewhere I have a choice. I don’t care if the chef is French, and the pig attended Harvard before ethically donating his leg,” the comment read.A few weeks ago, furious diners slammed a Sydney cafe for charging nearly $20 for banana bread, with many stating it was a “rip off” and “un-Australian”.
