While we’re sure you’ve noticed how some prices of your favourite meals just keep on climbing, it seems that this conversation may be heating up even more in Australia.

A pub owner has warned that schnitzels and parmigiana could soon cost an eye-watering $40 per meal due to the cost-of-living crisis.

David Basheer, Australian Hotels Association state president and owner of the CBD Strathmore Hotel in the centre of Adelaide, spoke of the rapid expansion of bureaucratic red tape that strangles venues—despite already having stringent measures, experienced chefs and cooks are forced to undergo eight hours of 'food standards 101' training.

Mr Basheer also said that many businesses in the hospitality industry are struggling to stay afloat amid a 20 per cent slump.

The pub and hospitality industry will also be battling the hefty effects of the cost of living crisis if the government follows the example of Victoria and phases out gas cooking.

'Natural gas is increasingly under siege,' Mr Basheer said.

Meanwhile, Coopers Alehouse General Manager said the major cost he bears is a weekly $25,000 wage bill.

'We see peaks and troughs a bit more,' he added.

'We're coming into a good time with Christmas, but it might be a bit different in January and February.'

Even though other costs are on the rise, Coopers Alehouse is holding the price of schnitzels to $28 with a special rate of $12 on Thursdays.

Meanwhile, South Australia’s Energy Minister Tom Koutsantonis’ spokesman said that the government; ‘has no intention whatsoever to ban gas connections’ and that ‘the fuel would remain essential in transitioning to cleaner energy.’

Key Takeaways

• A pub owner has warned that the price of schnitzels and parmigiana could rise to $40 due to the worsening cost of living crisis.
• If the South Australian government follows Victoria in phasing out gas cooking, it would result in additional costs for pubs.
• Other contributing factors such as increasing bureaucratic red tape and compulsory training for chefs and cooks.
• Despite these rising costs, Coopers Alehouse has managed to maintain the average price of schnitzels at $28, with a special rate of $12 on Thursdays.

For years a group of about 10 senior citizens used to occasionally go out for lunch to different pubs and restaurants in our area offering a good Seniors' Meal at a reasonable cost but in recent times our group has discontinued this as prices have been going through the roof and none of us Pensioners are able to afford the huge increases, now it's a sandwich at home. If the likes of a Chicken Schnitzel or Parma are going to cost around $40 then the average family won't be able to go out for the occasional Pub meal either, its just getting to be beyond the average person's reach.

Soon it will be the $40 pint of beer! Get f**Ked!

I may have mentioned this before but a pub in Rosebud on the Mornington Peninsula was charging $12.50 a pint. That was PRE COVID! Lucky I don't drink these days otherwise I would have to take a personal loan for a day on the piss!! That's right....my credit rating is zero thanks to some b*tch with a pretty noose.

With prices like $40 for a chicken schnitzel or a parmigiana and the hellish price now for a schooner of beer or a stubby it wont be too long before the pubs are empty and the 'boys' will be organising their own BBQ at home for themselves and their mates and saving themselves a whole lot of hard earned dollars. Meanwhile the pubs have a lot of daily overheads to consider, whether their bars are full of drinkers or not. Things need to improve shortly otherwise we may see some pubs shutting up shop or reducing their service significantly in order just to survive.

There is only two pubs in Dandenong where I live, down from three. The other alternative is the RSL and they charged $7.50 a schooner member's price pre COVID as well. Hate to know today's prices!
