Langer's Delicatessen-Restaurant in Los Angeles has increased its price for eggs by 50 cents due to soaring egg costs driven by an avian flu outbreak and other inflationary pressures. The average price of a dozen eggs reached a record $4.95 nationwide, with California prices exceeding $9. Alongside eggs, rising costs for other ingredients and general operational expenses are challenging many restaurants. Despite these hikes, customers have been supportive, understanding the necessity behind the increases during this difficult economic climate.
I tried to wait and wait in hopes [the price] would go back down. But it's going to keep increasing.
The average price for a dozen eggs nationwide has skyrocketed in the past year to a record high of $4.95 in January.
Alongside eggs, rising costs for produce and other items continue to put pressure on my business.
All the comments that are coming back to me is, 'Norm, we understand,'
