I mean sure, if we want to play the not USD currency game. But I don't think that was what I'd bring implied here 🤷‍♂️

To be fair tho I live in Chicago and there's 2 of these places by me. But there's another 2 that I can get a loaded combo with fries and a drink for about $10 USD and it's always fresh and delicious.

Link then, link the places in Chicago that are serving a $22 beef burger with no sides.

No link but American wild burger, the one in the city shut down apparently but there's still one in the suburbs. Add bacon cheese and BBQ sauce and you're at a little over $20 for a burger with no fries.

If you go to Google maps and just type burgers and filter price $20+ or $30+ there are plenty burger bars that will match that criteria.

But what’s your minimum wage?

Edit: it’s $23

Barely liveable. For comparison a Big Mac is $7.60 and a Whopper is $9.40.
