If I have a baseline for what stuff costs then I have an idea of what to pay.
we ate patty's everyday and it was set price of $1.50 beef, 2.00 for chicken and one day I tipped him and he gave me a free vegi patty..cheap lunch and very good. watch out for fruit sellers they charge all over the place bye the end of the day they just want to get rid of what they have and will sell for like $1US for a little bag of fruit. if you want to buy treasures go to Time Square (Sunny side) had good prices. Don't forget the taxes they charge are anywhere from 10 to 16.5 percent + a service charge at some places of 10%. we paid $10 on the street for some really good Jerk Chicken came with bread and was very yummy (Boston Jerk) I think was our guy.
