Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
Can't think of an interesting OP right now, so uh, lets just have it high rollers.
Tell us the times you've spent grubbing up truffles and drinking hennessy timeless.... |

6000 chicken fajitas

Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
Most of a bottle of JW Blue Label. Wish I could've said a bottle of Cristal.
|
Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
$25 for a patron margarita.
I've had meals in the $100-$150 per person range, nothing very expensive. |

Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
Cristal after high school graduation because my friends and I are idiots. 250$ a bottle I think I paid.
Good thing my taste isn't refined enough to enjoy really expensive food. |

Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
Nice.

Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
A $0.65 fountain drink that ended up costing me $30.65 after an unexpected overdraft due to a netflix monthly charge (random timing)that I didnt know of.
|
Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
I believe a Chateau Brion entree I ordered a couple of months ago was about $90.
|
Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
A $20 steak. I guess I need to get out more.
|
Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
I had either a Ketel & soda or Glenlivet neat at the Hard Rock that cost me about $10,000.

My buddy (anonymous 2+2er) took a bunch of us out after a good night and we drank some handles of kettle for 200 a pop. If we are talking most expensive, as in from a store, I had some JW blue label and it was amazing. |
Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
Louis XIV
Shot of that was $140 at the bar I worked at. And once had a meal that cost me 100 (my share). The Louis tasted like any other cognac. |

I've seen people drink tequila in a snifter too. Oh! I've had a 30 dollar shot of tequila... can't remeber the name but it was very smooth. Looking back... wtf was I thinking wasting this money away?! |
Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
Things that were worth the money:
Cristal champagne Kobe beef carpacio Black truffle on brie. Things that were not worth the money: Uni - gross and tasted bad Any and all expensive vodka - Make no impression on me. |
Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
Never had a shot over $6, a drink over $15, or a meal over $50.
I think I lose. |
Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
shark fin soup
i have no idea on the price because i never see the bill [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] |
Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
Guess it was a formal event that was about 500/head, 800/couple. Lots of great food, great wine, etc. But I didn't pay for that, so it doesn't count.
As far as what I've paid for myself...200-dollar bottle of Dom for New Year's...any meal at Al Biernat's in Dallas sets you back several buy-ins (at Backgammon or whatever game you happen to play). |

Kobe beef carpacio [/ QUOTE ] When/where did you have the "Kobe" beef? |
Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
bottle of 1971 Bordeaux. prob would cost have $500 had we ordered in a restaurant. this was purchased for just a few dollars back then, though.

When/where did you have the "Kobe" beef? [/ QUOTE ] Nobu in las vegas. Served 'new sashimi' style. Sliced very thin, spread on a plate, garnished with raw onion and greens, then drizzled with very hot oil. It's not on the menu, but if they have it in on hand they will make it for you. (or maybe it helps to know people who work there [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]) |
Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
I ate about $800 worth of beluga caviar at a party last may. Lots of vodka too, but that was only Belvedere.
|
Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
30yo laphroig is probably most expensive thing, a friend had a bottle which costs around $500 I think.

Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
The only place I ate caviar I liked was Stockhom. (well it was fish eggs really). They sold it from little booths in the park, on top of some sort of hard fried pancake/bread and soft cheese. Great

I'm surprised nobody else has already said this but I had a 400 dollar entree of Escargot with truffles in Paris.

Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
Kobe beef filet mignon, $160. Craftsteak at the MGM.

Re: Most expensive thing you\'ve ever ate/drank?
My most expensive meal was at Paul Bocuse's L'Auberge du Pont de Collonges in Lyon.
The meal was about $300 per person (not including the wine which was about $100). The best part of the meal was an unbelievable black truffle soup. I'll also add a picture of the place beacause it is so beautiful: http://www.bocuse.fr/images/interne/...ages/resto.jpg |
