The first time I came to Japan to travel freely, catching the budget is a must-do homework! Japan's prices are about twice that of China, and catering costs account for a considerable proportion of travel expenses. However, tasting local delicacies is an important part of self-service travel, and you must not save what you should spend! The editor has compiled the average consumption standard for Japanese diet . Mastering a few tips can not only enjoy delicious food, but also not burden the wallet!
▋Three principles for controlling Japanese travel meal expenses!
① Japan's prices are about 2 times that of
Japan's prices are about 2 to 3 times that of China. Japanese restaurants do not charge 10% service fees like China, but they will charge 10% consumption tax. For a bowl of ramen that is not taxed for 500 yen , another 50 yen consumption tax will be charged. The average consumption of catering for three meals per person per day can be set at 3,000 to 4,000 yen , which is a relatively reasonable range. If you want to taste more high-end dishes, you can increase your budget according to your own situation. Before entering a restaurant to consume, you should also note that the price marked by the store is "tax included" (tax included) or "tax included" (tax included) .
② Lunch is cheaper than dinner
Like China, many restaurants will launch relatively discounted prices at noon, such as McDonald's will launch a discounted package of 500 yen in China during lunch hours. The well-known high-end chain roast pork restaurant "Xuxuyuan". The average consumption per person during dinner is almost more than 10,000 yen, but there will be a discounted package during lunch hours. You can eat high-end roast pork if you have more than 2,000 yen. If you want to have a lot of food but are afraid of hurting your purse, you might as well arrange a more high-end restaurant such as this at noon.
③ Affordable and high-priced restaurants are matched with each other
For travelers who want to control their catering budget, it is also a good way to match affordable and high-priced restaurants in a day's dining choice. For example, for breakfast, choose a convenience store or fast food store, choose a chain beef bowl store, a family restaurant or ramen for lunch, and choose a restaurant with a good atmosphere for dinner to relax. If there is any leftovers on the daily catering budget, you can also go to the convenience store to buy snacks and drinks!
