With most producers preparing to increase prices, restaurant chains are expected to follow suit thanks to the spike in manufacturing costs as a result of the Russia-Ukraine war and galloping inflation amid the prolonged pandemic.
Every category of retail eatery ranging from food courts, sukiyaki, shabu and steak to high-end restaurants have gradually increased their prices by 5-10% since early this year. To name a few, these include Suki Teenoi, Zen, AKA, Kouen, Narai Pizzeria, Sizzler steakhouse, Mo Mo Paradise and Four Seasons Chinese Restaurant.
