What is the cost of living in Dublin?

reno_rita

I am going to be spending next week in Dublin on vacation (in February, I know). I wanted to know the cost of living in Ireland. Last I looked, the conversion between the US dollar and Euro was 1 USD = .95 Euros. So for sake of simplicity, let's say it one-to-one. Can I eat for the same amount in Dublin as I do in the US? I understand that eating in New York City is very different than eating in El Paso, Texas.
