Two Dollar Meals That Surprised Me
What makes you think twice about going to the same place to eat out? Maybe it's about the place, the service, and of course the delicious taste of the food. Oh, wait a minute. What about the discounts they've been offering for the past few days?
Come with me to a fancy restaurant in my city. The first fancy restaurant established in my city can be seen from the presentation of the food and also from the design of the place they designed.
This is not my first visit. This is my second visit to this fancy restaurant. Actually, what made me interested in revisiting this restaurant is because of the Happy Hours discount at certain times. On this occasion, I chose 4 pm to 6 pm (before dinner). So this is like a time to drink good coffee.
They provide a 2 dollar price package for some of the food they provide. 2 dollars for one portion of food and one portion of selected drinks available.
I ordered a hot coffee menu with special banana snacks. I think this is 2 dollars which is quite cheap in a fancy restaurant like this.
I think there is a special reason why they implement a discount on food and drink packages at Happy Hours every day. It can increase visits or the number of customers to this restaurant. It's just that, unfortunately most people in this city don't really care about the appearance of a luxurious restaurant.
The average economy of the residents here is middle to lower. So people here only care about the quality of taste and quantity, not the luxurious appearance of the food or the luxury of the place.
Indeed, there are some people who look for restaurants with a luxurious appearance for several occasions. For example, to celebrate important family gatherings or meetings with their business colleagues. It's just that, it's not too much because the city where I live is only a small town.
So, with this 2 dollar discount offer, it's quite good to give visitors the opportunity to enjoy the atmosphere of this place. Anyway, besides the 2 dollar package, there are also other packages for the main food types. In my opinion, it's also very worth trying.
Let's see what I ordered for the 2 dollar menu this time. First, I ordered banana snacks served with cheese and special sauce. The special sauce is called srikaya. srikaya sauce is a traditional Indonesian sauce made from egg, sugar, and coconut milk.
The banana is served fried with a thin crispy flour coating, but the inside is very soft. They use thin pieces so that the combination of banana and srikaya sauce blends well. Plus a soft cheese topping.
With a cheap price, of course with this much portion it is worth enjoying. It tastes really good! With the right level of sweetness and the quality of the cheese and special srikaya sauce is good. I don't regret trying to choose the menu offered for this 2 dollar discount.
Next, for hot coffee I ordered a hot cappuccino. As soon as I took a sip of this coffee, wow my eyes immediately felt fresh, wide open! As if I had new energy to continue my day.
The taste of the coffee is quite strong and not sweet, but of course not as bitter as Americano. One thing I regret is the latte art on this cup of coffee. I was expecting a good latte art. Unfortunately, I think they failed to make latte art, and they took the safe thing to sprinkle cappuccino powder on top.
Overall, I don't have much to complain about because I also enjoyed the 2 dollar menu that surprised me. The menu choices for the 2 dollar package are very varied, both food and drinks. Visitors have quite a lot of choices for the 2 dollars available.
What about you guys? Do you like hunting for discounts or do you not like to look for discounts because you know it will reduce the quality? Well, in my opinion, in some places, especially new places or rebranding restaurants, they will give special discounts as a reward for customers for coming to that place. So, don't be afraid to try the discounted menus available at some places in your area. What do you think?

Such a bargain deal sis. 2 dollar is a good price. I think the luxurious appearance makes people think it could be expensive at first look. Maybe with more exposure more people will know about the menu especially the happy hour discount.
That is really great marketing sis 😊
That's true sis
The food in the restaurant is definitely good, so you went there for the second time. The food looks delicious. Thank you so much for sharing such a beautiful moment with us
The place is cozy, and the discount is good deal
Amazing! You just bought quality food at such an affordable price, especially at a fancy place. Unbelievable for only 2 dollars? 😯
Yeah I saw from their Instagram about that promo. Such a good deal!
I share with you your first view of the restaurant, I see that it is very elegant and very minimalist, but what I liked the most was the huge cup of coffee, I have one I think it is just as big but it is not pink, I am not very fond of pancakes, but if there are no pancakes in the restaurant, it is very elegant and very minimalist.
The little blue mug is my wife's, you know which one is mine HAHA

Happy Enjoy with that delicious dish .Very appetizing food.
It was. Thank you 😊
Yes please who doesn't love discount? I think if I see a fancy restaurant with good service which offers discount. I'd visit if often. The meal looks yummy.
We love discount ehehe 😊❤️
It is so amazing that they have that Happy Hours discount promo. I think it is a good strategy for the shop. And the place looks really nice, so is the foods. And i'm curious about that banana recipe with a sauce. We already tried a crispy and fried banana coated with flour, but never with a sauce.
Happy hours made me happy for sure!
Maybe in your country has same sauce. Made from egg, coconut milk, sugar.
Wow, not bad for $2 bargain. I think I would loved that banana and coffee 🤤 but I prefer having it on my snack time at 2 pm. 😊
2 pm also good choices 😊
The meal looks so appetizing for just Two dollar
It's a good deal deal
Yeah super good deal
It's exciting, eating delicious food in a luxurious place but getting it at a cheap price
Absolutely. The place also so cozy 😊

You stretched your dollars for sure. That meal is not only economical, but looks delicious. We have a sauce similar to that made with eggs, sugar, and milk. The consistency when stirred while cooking results in a custard-type coating. We use it on bananas also to make a banana pudding.
In a banana pudding, we place vanilla wafers around and throughout the pudding, layered. Below is an example:
YUMMY! Take care.

In my country, the salary just small. So people choose cheap price. Thats why food owner business need to think more about the strategy.
That is true. One can't charge high prices, they will lose their customers and go out of business if no one is able to pay for the food. During COVID in the U.S. numerous restaurants and fast-food chain businesses collapsed, with them filing for bankruptcy. The country still haven't fully recovered.
yeah, the economic still not recovery unfortunately
So cool when a place make discounts, and two dollars it's really super cheap here in Italy it's almost impossible find a dish with this price!!
Because here the salary also low, so the price of the food here also not expensive than in your country 😊
That looks like quite a lot for 2 dollars to me. A great deal I think and the banana snack sounds really good.
It seems like they are doing a great offer to try to get people to come in and see their new place and try a little bit of their food.
At different times in my life, cost may have been more important, but it needed to still be tasty food. I don't consider it a good deal if I pay less, but don't like the food.
I am willing to pay more if the food is really good.
Sometimes, when we are not in special moment, then the discount is good deal
But in special moment, I prefer to choose general price 😊
The place is beautiful like this and if you get some discount it's a lot of fun to go there.
Yeah good discount 😊
!PIZZA
wow, that 2 dollars was really interesting
