Burgers pricing in Jammu
Burgers cuisine runs a 28-34% food cost band when executed well. The most-missed cost line: buns + patty + cheese: each independently priced.
For Jammu specifically: Vaishno Devi pilgrim season Apr-Oct.
Worked example: Veg Burger comes out to a plate cost of ₹53 and a recommended price of ₹224 at a 30% food cost target. The minimum viable price is ₹192 — below this, you're losing money on every plate after kitchen labour.
Next: run the viability score for Burgers × Jammu, and check the opening cost for Jammu.
