Not to argue with you, my friend, but I feel that your "market analysis" cannot lead anywhere.

It is true that some restaurants are too expensive for what they offer, and some others may be even not honest (just increase the real weight of a fish, et voila).
But what can you do with receipts?

1) It is not true that "the cheaper the better". It is not true that an apple costing $0.50 is always better than an apple costing $1.
There is also quality. Price may depend (should depend, in the ideal world) on quality.

Moreover, from receipts:
2) you don't see how large are the portions;
3) you don't see how good and fresh is the food (quality);
4) you may see "bawal 120k", but without seeing its weight;
5) even if you see the weight "bawal 600gr", then you don't see what was its real weight.

Judging a restaurant is complex. Price is only one of the factors, and it is tightly bound to quality. (and even to its location)
