The sales tax on the food will be $105.79 x 0.09 = $<<105.79*0.09=9.52>>9.52.
The food plus the sales tax will cost $105.79 + $9.52 = $<<105.79+9.52=115.31>>115.31.
The pre-tax amount is $115.31 / 1.09 = $<<115.31/1.09=105.99>>105.99.
The tip will be $105.99 x 0.2 = $<<105.99*0.2=21.20>>21.20.
The total cost will be $115.31 + $21.20 = $<<115.31+21.20=136.51>>136.51. Answer: \boxed{136.51}.
