If you are careful. This buffet is clean, and a couple of blocks east of the parque central. Across the street is S/N where I just paid 300 with tip fir two coffees and two e excellent pastries.
Prices across the board are going up. Nicaragua doesn't follow the usual economic models. The seller of chips on the corner sees his volume fall and raises his price per bag in an attempt to maintain his daily nut.
Relationships matter, convenience, and extras like delivery, but at some point the buyer starts looking for alternatives.
What you see in Nicaragua too is "creep". You start -always- with an estimado. One assumes then the prices will remain consistent,, but the good business man will attempt to extract a few extra cordobas .
I've been buying $2K in building supplies every month. Much if it is by WhatsApp for delivery to the farm.
In fairness, the materials dealers have been fighting a variety of battles. Almost nothing but bloques and piedra canteras are sourced in Nicaragua.
Electrical and plumbing, and some steel comes from CR. DRYWALL comes from Mexico, as well as a lot of ceramic Tools from El Salvador.
You begin to see the problem -if everything goes into the toilet later this year.
