Feeling priced out of pancakes

My partner and I went to Brother’s Family Restaurant today as a treat. We both really love their Grandma Jennie’s pancakes. We ordered:

• two coffees • two Grandma Jennie’s specials (2 eggs, 2 sausage (or bacon), 2 pancakes) • 1 hashbrown to split

There was a sign on the door explaining that a up charge of 50¢ per egg ordered was currently in effect. We got 4 eggs so we were charged $2.00 extra. Our total, with 20% cash tip was $60.

I accept and understand that it’s tough to balance the books in this tight economic environment but man, $60 for two people for pancakes is a lot.
