So yes for boomers or fire Asia > CAD
I just got back at Chongqing, Shanghai was 20-40% more

BBT - 12-20RMB, 30-50 for fancy places
Noodles - 12-40 RMB for beef noodle soup
XLB - 10-15 RMB
Breakfast egg wraps - 10-15 RMB Delivered

Fancy dimsum - $20 CAD
Haidilao - $30 CAD
AYCE Caviar, Toro, crab, shrimp, wine + 24 hour massage - $250 CAD
3 Person massage + Buffet - $60 CAD
Chang'An type of dinner - $60/pp min spend
mid to upper tier hotpot - $20-30/pp

Taxi's $6-10CAD/Hour


China is so cheap, it's nice to be able to pay for everyone's cabs, upgrade to XL for $10 a trip, pay for everyone's meal and drinks

Ends up costing $20-100 a day still
