The thing that got me, was that food in a ‘cheap’ food court such as burger, pizza etc was so expensive. $11 for a slice in the flamingo and that’s without tax. $28.99 for burger fries and a drink?

We headed over to Ellis island and got 4 slices of giant pizza and 2 bottles of water for $11! The strip is just robbery
