Remember when Steve Wynn put his elbow through a Picasso?

6. I did once eat at his Picasso restaurant at the Bellagio

So named because there are original Picasso paintings on every wall, and a few sculptures.

It was extravagant well past decadence. The bill for four people was over $2500. I had a single glass of scotch that was almost $100. Everything was of amazing quality, granted, but ridiculous anyway. Stuff like “poached pheasant egg on truffled foie gras.”

Note that we didn’t pay for any of it, because we are not stupid or greedy. A friend owed us some favors, her aunt is a high roller from China, and so we got the whole thing comped. Still. Holy shit. Eating there on a free expense account will make you think bringing back the guillotine is a perfectly reasonable, somewhat tame, response to income inequality.
