Tucson restaurants like Boca, Feast, and Rocco's Little Chicago Pizzeria are all paying higher prices for basic ingredients. They are trying not to raise prices but have found times to be tough.
TUCSON, Ariz. — Doug Levy has a passion for cooking food at his restaurant Feast, but what he’s more passionate about is his customers. He said that’s why it’s important that he stays honest with them.
He said since last year, food like poultry, meat, seafood and produce have all going up about 50 percent. He said that means he’s having to make tough decisions about whether to raise prices again. Levy said he’s expecting inflation to go down at some point, but in the meantime he’s staying proactive by saving up money.
He’s trying his best not to raise prices on his customers, saying “I find it distasteful and in that aspect, I’m not much of a businessman. I’d rather make the food.”He said inflation isn’t just impacting his business, but also his employees, and that’s why it was important to him that he raise their pay.
