When going on a trip to another country, we usually calculate the upcoming expenses in advance. One of the main items of expenditure, of course, is food. How to plan your budget in such a way as not to exceed the limit, but also not to deny yourself anything?
Instructions
Step 1
Dine at local cafes and restaurants. If you are looking for places to dine, ask the locals where they prefer to eat, in these places prices are always two to three times lower than in the tourist areas and the center. In addition, this way you can get to know the locals better and feel the atmosphere of the country.
Step 2
Shop for groceries at the supermarket. If you rent a house or a room with a kitchen and know how to cook a little, then you can save great money if you buy groceries at the local supermarket, or buy ready-made food by weight, such as salads, which will also come out cheaper.
Step 3
Have breakfast at the hotel. In many hotels, breakfast is included in the price of your stay, so get up early and have a good breakfast to recharge your batteries for the day.
Step 4
Take one serving for two. Many cafes and restaurants serve huge portions, so you can save a lot of money if you take one portion for two, while you are unlikely to go hungry, and your lunch costs will be cut in half.
Step 5
Order set meals. This option is available in many cafes and restaurants, especially in business districts. Business lunches or set meals are a great option to save money. They usually consist of several courses, and prices are much lower than those from the main menu.
