How much is 200 rubles in American?

At today's exchange rate, 200 Russian roubles are equivalent to approximately 7 US dollars.

I have a Russian coworker who says that this restaurant is in the very expensive area of St Petersburg

Given that "the average monthly salary in Russia was 6,590 rubles, which is equivalent to $235, in the end of 2004" * That 200 rubles is a lot of money to the average Russian.

I should also add that the unemployment rate in Russia (per the CIA Worldfact Book) is about 29%.
