"That is a waste of money," said Rungrat Ketpinyo, 44, who sells Phad Thai noodles for 75 cents a plate from a street cart outside the hotel. "I don't care how luxurious this meal is. It's ridiculous.

Guys,

The MOST important thing in life is food.

Food is a celebration of flavor and it is essential for life.

Not to mention we (USA) WAIST millions of dollars a year on food...

$25,000 for a "meal of a lifetime" if you don't eat out AT ALL for one year... you can have enough money for a Meal of a Lifetime

Beluga caviar, Perigord truffles, Kobe beef, Brittany lobster — each paired with a rare and robust vintage wine.

Do you know what Kobe Beef is?
(I do… and I dream of it!)

Costs more or "worth" more? There is a difference.

yeah, i love food, shoot, i'm constantly eating...but 25k? that's a little too much for one meal. oh, and yeah, i know that America is hated for our waste of food, buffets and all that. however, i try not to waste any food. i buy and eat food that i know that i will like so that i won't leave any to go to waste.

i dunno, i never liked rare meat. so i will probably end up wasting that Kobe beef. better leave it to those who would appreciate it more than i would.

Kaotic Lazagna · 02-11-2007, 04:22 PM

whoa, i hate math now...you lost me...lol.

Alright, Alright…

I may have over exaggerated on the price a little… And yes Sex is more fun then food, but not more important!

I can go a week without sex (Maybe) but I can’t go more then a day without food!

I am just saying if I had $25,000 grad just sitting around and I didn’t know what to do with it… I would eat that meal…

To date the most expensive meal I ate was a $300 FEAST at the Delmonico Steakhouse in Las Vegas… It was by far the best meal I have ever had… Hell I needed to smoke a cigarette afterwards

I have had Kobi Style beef before, but from what others have told me... Still no where near the flavor of Kobi Beef!

yeah, houses here in Sac, CA are that high, and in the Bay Area, they're even higher.
