Hong Kong ( CNN ) -- In some cities around the world there 's no such thing as a cheap date . According to Deutsche Bank 's newly updated `` Cheap Date Index , '' the cost of a simple date -- that is , McDonalds burgers , soft drinks , a movie , a few beers and a cab ride -- varies tremendously depending on where you live . The most expensive is London , where a basic night out could cost you $ 121 . At the other end of the scale is the Indian city of Mumbai , where the same night out would run to just $ 23 . With the exception of Tokyo , Asian cities tended to be cheaper , whereas European cities were more expensive places for wooing your partner . Sanjeev Sanyal , a Deutsche Bank strategist , told CNBC the Cheap Date Index is `` a proxy for the cost of living without taking real estate costs directly in there . '' The Cheap Date Index has been calculated since 2012 . This year 's date may have gotten a little less romantic , though : Last year 's index included the price of a bouquet of roses . .
