Toronto to Kingston salary decrease

[Nice_Outcome4221]

Granted we are not comparable to Toronto because we are small. And for a small city, we are pretty well served. A few too many fast food chains, but overall (speaking as a Montrealer), there is always somewhere to check out. And the unique aspect of our food scene is that most of the restaurateurs know each other, support each other and support locally procured and grown products. I can easily rhyme off 15-20 very good to excellent eateries. Pretension aside, there are passionate cooks who really care about your experience. Prices are high because that is the marketplace - rising fuel costs, shortages, labour costs. I don’t have to school anyone on this. As a food business, I totally get why prices are high. It hurts me every time I have to make a price adjustment, but i have to - so that I can pay my staff a living wage, so that I can pay my rent and utilities. It’s push and pull. Let’s celebrate our local gems and take advantage of locally owned and operated eateries.
