[quote=Anonymous]Realistically speaking, how much should I budget for myself for breakfast, lunch and dinner daily in London --- assuming that I will eat breakfast in the hotel or at a small café, and lunch and dinner at a normal (not fancy) restaurant? No need to include alcohol/wine (keeping those costs separate). Having never traveled abroad and hearing how expensive London is, I'm a little clueless and somewhat concerned that I might over or under estimate the costs. FWIW, I need to put together a budget proposal for a business trip, and I was told that the $125 US I budgeted as a daily ball park figure was way too high. Our daily per diem is typically in the $85-100 US (depending on the city), so I thought $125 seemed like a high but conservative estimate (trying to be conservative and budget more than necessary rather than less so I can come in under budget and not submit surprise expenses). Regardless of per diem, my meals will be covered at 100% since this isn't a standard work trip (and no, I don't work for the government). Thanks for the tips! [/quote]
