Part of chef Hubert Keller's inspiration for the eye-popping $5,000 Fleur Burger 5000 at his Las Vegas restaurant Fleur was borne out of competition: In 2005, Keller noticed Daniel Boulud had a burger that was $100 and wanted to beat it. So this Kobe beef burger comes topped with seared foie gras and truffles on a brioche truffle bun. But what really jacks up the price is a bottle of 1995 Chateau Petrus wine and the two crystal stemware glasses that the restaurant delivers to the home of anyone who orders the burger. So far, a rep tells Eater the restaurant has sold about 26 Fleur Burger 5000s and there is no need to order in advance.

Stuff like that annoys me.

$5000 burger... Fock off!

That chef needs to have a good look at himself.

No, he doesn't.

Anyone who pays $5,000 for the burger needs to have a good look at themselves.

Fair play to him, though, for identifying that such people exist, and taking advantage of them!

Price: $1,000
Where: Serendipity 3, New York, NY

Why so expensive? About 50 people a year order this Guinness World Record dessert, which must be requested two days in advance to allow for ingredient sourcing. For a cool $1,000, you get Tahitian Vanilla ice cream covered in 23-carat gold leaf, drizzled with Amedei Porcelana chocolate (real expensive), and topped with pieces of Venezuelan Chuao chocolate (also very, very expensive), gold-coated almonds, candied fruit flown in from Paris, and “sweet Grand Passion Caviar infused with passion fruit, orange and Armagnac,” according to the Daily Mail. And it’s all served in a crystal goblet, because, why not? (Photo: CNN)

Tbf, the kind of person to whom a $5k burger is targeted towards would likely consider $5k pocket change.

N.V. ARMAND DE BRIGNAC BLANC DE BLANC CHAMPAGNE £3,297.0

That's a quick glance and mid range...

Then two crystal champagne flites... The burger becomes ..... LOL Average


But, with a good win on the tables and you would buy them for all your mates.






Depends how good a bunch of mates.

You're like 'new money' Oblomov. If its expensive or has rare ingredients, you're impressed.

Oblomov

If you don't look, you'll never know

If you don't taste it, you'll never know

And, there's never any harm in looking.

Not about new money, just a journey of discovery. It's nice to know what's good and bad in any trade or profession.

Well done, That's the sort of sh1t we need, there is too much of this fancy pants stuff the size of a tennis ball sitting on a giant plate. We need more massive outrageously stupid and unhealthy helpings.

This thread is called food porn afterall. We all enjoy a nice intimate one on one video on red tube but every now and then a good oul dirty no holds barred gangbang scene is needed .
