About $250 for two. Tragically, it wasn't worth it.

30 bucks, not into spending a lot of money on something that is going to come out of the other end the next day.

We are not big spenders by any means - or big eaters for that matter- but last year for my son's 24th birthday we took him and his girlfriend to a Brazilian steakhouse in Philadelphia named Fogo de Chao-it was a great fun experience for us- the waiters walk around serving different cuts of meat and there was a terrific salad bar- I think the bill was around $375. for the 4 of us-they also served a terrific speciality drink- I wish I could remember what is was because I would go back just to have another one-

Would you please explain this. All that wine for 6 people. a bottle each? $5,000 for a bottle of wine? Just tell us what this meal was all about. Obviously it was worthy of keeping the receipt but really---that much money for food to put in your stomach? I'm very confused.

It's not that... if you want it, you want it....


It's the $12 glass of water!

About $100 for two.

Some friends took over a huge Chicago deli for a Saturday evening for an AYCE feast.

I have been invited to several $300+pp restaurants but honestly, it is not that important to me.

Took a date out once for about $100. I could have gotten laid for half that. Definitely not worth it.

^^^ Celebrity Buzz This is an actual receipt from Nello's in New York City. The customer was Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich, who had no problem dropping 47k on food and drinks for himself and five other people.
