In an average restaurant, how much would a dinner cost....a beer(pint)...a mixed liquor drink such as vodka and tonic or gin and tonic....?

What would a cup of coffee or pot of coffeee cost in morning?

For example, in the famous Quanjude Roast Duck Restaurant at No.32 Qianmen Street, a five-minute walk south of Tian'anmen Square, how much would a meal be for a person dining alone?

Thanks...

In an average restaurant,about 30---50RMB!

And the beer including Beijing beer,Tsing Beer,about 4---8RMB!

I don't know how much of one person in Quanjude,I had two person less than 500RMB.

Beijing Roast Duck is greasy, but nice and worthwhile for a try. :-)

Set meal for ONE person in Quanjude is about US$40.

Yes, it is very expensive, but eating roast duck at other restaurants will definitely cost much less, the places serves duck are all over Beijing, right?

Quanjude is said to be the original and century-old restaurant, you eat there, so part of the bill you pay, you pay for its reputation!

It's reasonable, like a Dior bag costs over 10 thousand, people pay for "Finally Being There" not just get a bag for keys and tissues - a bag of 10 yuan has the same function. lol
