Most you've ever spent at a resturant?

I start this petty contest with a modest $275. 10 of us went to a japanese place a few months ago and ended up paying this.

Please split this into two groups: with alcohol and without alcohol (such as the above)

eating sushi and drinking sake, we did almost 400 bucks between 3 of us. We were full and wrecked.

Big dinners out with 10+ people, had more than one occasion where it was $100/person+.

Around $400 for 13 people to have a buffet dinner at a nice authentic chinese place in Long Island, NY

This buffet was mad good, had peking duck, guys making fresh sushi, snow crab legs, etc.

Biggest tab I've ever picked up was ~ $250CDN. Buddy's birthday, about 8 of us had dinner. A lot of the people there were broke, so I picked up the tab so they could all afford to go out later.

After the protests, I just said "Look, it's Mark's birthday, noone's gonna pussy out just 'cause they're broke."

No idea, probably over a thousand dollars for the wedding party I was with that went to the Turtle Club.

 

[Liviathan]

1,300, 6 people.

Charlie Trotter's Chicago.

Um, 5 people. Well over 100,000 yen (around US$900) not including any alcohol except for a few beers. We also tacked on 3 bottles of some crazy good liquor (all recommended by my otherwise quiet boss). Thankfully, I wasn't paying. I can't be more specific about the amount because all I saw was my boss whip out 10 x 10,000-yen bills from his vest pocket and then have to go into his billfold for more.

In America, most expensive per person was a dinner for two at Ruth's Chris, about $140 with a bottle of wine. Most expensive as a group was somewhere around $400 but that was like 10 people all having desserts and whatnot.

$1000 between 8 with Alcohol. It was a fish resturant in Houston.

Gotta love expenses

 

3 guys, $450 not including tip, chop house in Chicago.

[alent1234]

around $450 including tip for 4 people at V Steakhouse in the new AOL Time Warner HQ. Larry King was in the table next to us.

 

[Svnla]

A few years ago, about 40 of us, the Plant Manager paid for everything. The bill came out with tips and all was about $2500 or so.

Yes I call that expensive.

Just imagine if it were at a steakhouse or something like that, would be closer to $250+

:thumbsup:

Nothing dumber than spending loads of money on something you'll flush down the toilet the next day.
