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.

eh, I would hope they at least gave it to you in a nice snifter and not in a shot glass. I mean, honestly, who takes shots of cognac?

It was. 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?!

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.

Never had a shot over $6, a drink over $15, or a meal over $50.

I think I lose.

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).

Lobsters and Champagne in Brussels.

6 people, six lobsters, 2 bottles of champagne. Awesome.

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])
