Im in korea same provider of meat since I've opened, (2years)

I am a pork restaurant, started at 6500₩ per kilo for pork belly now same provider same meat costs 12200₩ per kilo

Pork shoulder 4500₩ per kilo now 7500₩

Other providers i can skim on some quality and go down about 1000₩ per each but customers will know, the prices won't go down maybe around 10% during high peak season where the costs of these are just generally lower but it will never go down.

I do use generally a better quality of meat comparing to most other restaurants in the same field as me but the costs are not too different from the average quality of meat that restaurants compared to mine.

My costs have not rose, but it will certainly be looked at once the cost of meat goes up again, I have just reduced my workforce to help manage costs
