re: What is the most you ever dropped on a single meal while dining out?

In 1994 another Arthur Andersen tax manager and I took a billionaire client's daughter to dinner in the Wine Cellar at Masa in San Francisco. She ordered 3 bottles of wine. The cheapest was $4,800. I had to excuse myself and go call the partner on the engagement. He told me to have a good time, and that her dad was going to end up paying for the meal.
The bill came to just under $18,500 for the 3 of us. Thank God for American Express.

Could have passed that along to Enron.
And to the OP, I have no clue but I'd say whatever it was it was probably not worth it or I would remember.
I'm a very big fan of tasting menus but I quit adding the wine pairings long ago. When I'm dining in that fashion I'm normally with people who know as much about wine as anyone and we just pick what we would prefer ourselves.
