This place is not just a haven for delicious food and breathtaking scenery; it’s also notorious for its sky-high prices that can leave your wallet feeling a bit lighter than you’d like.
Let’s take a closer look at the local supermarket:
– A single head of cabbage will set you back 15 RMB.
– A small bunch of cherry tomatoes costs a whopping 12 RMB.
– Three eggplants come with a price tag of 15 RMB.
– Imported domestic canned mixed grains are priced at 27 RMB.
– Even imported domestic instant spicy noodle skins cost 14 RMB.
– The popular Haidilao hot pot base is a steep 28 RMB.
– A jar of imported domestic broad bean paste is also 28 RMB.
– A simple block of tofu costs 12 RMB.
– And three tiny cucumbers will still cost you 5 RMB.

Wow, those prices are insane! I had no idea vegetables could be so expensive in Jakarta. It really makes you rethink planning a trip there, doesn’t it?
