Google tried to buy me a $50 burger. I passed in favor of a $25 salad. Still felt stupid just slightly less so.

I got double beans and double rice in my burrito once. Farted like crazy. Not worth it.

The most expensive single meal I’ve had was a 20,000 yen (~$170 usd) vegan full course meal at a 1 Michelin star restaurant called FARO in Tokyo. I bought some wine for my friend too, so it was more like 24,000 yen.

It was actually pretty good. Some kind of fancy bread appetizer, a main course meal of potato pasta, a really good set of seasoned vegetables, then vegan dessert which was a slice of cake and some kind of extremely fancy cookie perched on a bed of hazelnut spread.

Honestly most of the cost was the presentation I think. Every meal was set out in front of us arranged all fancy on these big stone plates and bowls. The food was good but not worth the cost. My memories of the meal is still good though because I was there with a friend and I hadn’t seen him in a while.

I had a $80 steak at a fancy restaurant once. No it was not worth it. I’ve made better steaks myself.

Similar for me, but it was “only” 60. I ate far better for 30.
