Interesting how Hungary comes out of this comparison with the highest cost of food of the 10 cities. It’s terrible. I found restaurant prices to be high and unfortunately the quality has not as good as it used to be. After being shocked by much higher prices tourists will take their time before considering another visit. It’s going to affect the tourists who have been coming on a regular basis. Some of them are going to decide to try some other destination for a change because any kind of value proposition is completely gone.
