A restaurant with 3 meals is 35 dollars minimum with 2 meals , the tip 20% is forgotten also. 1 meal is 15 to 20 dollars without tip.
TAXI 1 HOUR IS NOT 10 DOLLARS.!! 20 minutes of taxi Uber to go from downtown to the airport is 17 dollars (1 week ago)!
Globally, the price written are 30 to 70 %less than the reality.
Perhaps low cost Walmart is the reference ?
