$100+ USD for a 6oz A5 wagyu steak. Certainly changes your perspective on the heights of quality for steak. I also paid $65 for a sashimi grade tuna Benedict at this place for brunch. No ragrets.

$60 for a 1/2 pour of an $1100 bottle of bourbon (rabbit hole amburana). It was a novelty and surprised me a lot. Definitely phenomenal, but a taste was all I needed. No ragrets.

Sam adams utopia (think it was $220 for the 750ml bottle of "beer"), not worth it, but a fun experience to share with other beer nerds.

There's an apparently $1200 bottle of wine from a small napa vineyard with a wait-list for their wine in my basement right now we got as a gift. We're gonna need to find a pro who can help us taste that. My wine taste tops out at about $30 a bottle.

One day I'll do Omakase at a suitably awesome sushi place and wreck the credit card.

Utopias is worth it for me. Still one of the best beers I've drank and you can keep it long term anyhow. Jmho.

1) Be nice and; have fun

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

6) No US Politics.

Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world

7) No Hit-and-Run questions.

Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.
