Probably not going to get any REAL grouper dinner for under $30 anytime soon ! Guess I'll just continue to go to Port Canaveral to Grill's for my grouper... sure hope they don't raise the prices or change out the real thing for something similar over there! While on the topic, anyone know where one can get genuine pompano when in season ?
Understand that food cost should be no more than 30% of sales price of the item.

That of course would include any sides, salad etc.
