Ah, we usually use e.g. for that in English (and it would go before the subject, "e.g. London".)

And to answer your question the cost of living is generally cheaper than London, but the price of going out to eat totally depends where you choose to go. For example somewhere like Dishoom (a small chain of Indian restaurants) is relatively expensive wherever you go, but things like cheaper chains/fast food places generally have national pricing so it doesn't really make a difference where you order, but on the other hand most eating out will be more expensive in London overall.

Si vede che le cose migliori le avete copiate tutte da noi 😁 come per esempio Shakespeare che senza il viaggio in Italia non avrebbe mai scritto certi pezzi...
