As I recall, I had a meal in Birchtesgaden at the Intercontinental there on Christmas Eve that was something like 500 Euro per person. It was something like 10 courses and the chef came out to meet everyone and give them presents. It was an incredible experience. I will never do it again.

I didn't personally pay it but my wife and I were with Deuce McAllister and a group at a club in new Orleans (he was friends with my boss) and 50 cent was sitting a few tables over from us. 50 cent started ordering those super expensive bottles with the fire crackers and shite and Deuce wanted to try to one up him so he started ordering them too. They went back and forth for a couple hours and Deuce's bill ended up being over $80,000

But as a 28 year old, spending more than $200 on any meal just seems stupid.


That's because you don't have the money to spend.

I once spent $15 on Taco Bell just for myself. That's a lot of food at Taco Bell.

1500+ at Ruth's Chris, but it was on my company card so not real. I've had several get up there for work.

August, New Orleans


Went one time and loved it. Went another time and was underwhelmed.

Don't recall the tab...

I've had similar conflicting experiences at August. Thought about using them for my rehearsal dinner but then I went again and it wasn't anything special.

To answer the OP, about $1000 before tip at The French Laundry. Worth it.

Yeah, one of the best steaks I've ever had. Also the shrimp were some of the biggest I'd ever seen.

1400.00 US dollars in Argentina on a business dinner. (you know how much you can buy for 1400 dollars in that country? its a shite ton...) At least half that was the liquor bill.

For work, $4.250 before tip at Ambassador steakhouse in Laredo, for 25 people.

Personal, about 150 at the melting pot.

I have a wedding reception coming up that I will be writing a check to cover the dinner portion.

I could spend less at a Honda car dealership and leave with a new car.

Work-wise, a couple of thousand in Ireland. Mostly bar tab and cigars.

Personally, the worst damage for Mrs. Füt and I was at the Cliff in Barbados.

Probably $1,300 ish, they got us a MB Limousine to take us back to the house.
