    Back when I ran a restaurant the rule of thumb was to charge triple whatever you paid for the food, and that would cover all the other stuff. I’m curious what it is now.

      I know there’s restaurants in my area that charge 10€/lt of Coke. At supermarkets it’s like 1,50€, and they probably pay it even less.

      Not sure about food but for liquor it’s 5x. Triple might be right for food as at least for bars it’s a loss leader.
