(7,294 posts)If people want to piss away their money on a status symbol, whatever that is, it's their money! I don't know how you got your money, but it is YOURS. I am not rich, but I am upper-middle class, top 5% type. I'm sure some folks think what I spend MY money on is silly. Don't care. My only real comment here is that there are damned few of us who can pay $400/plate for a meal, and of those of us who COULD, few of us would consider that money well spent. But if the dude can charge that and get it? That's fine by me. I'd rather a chef get that cash than some Sportsball star. But I do hope a wealthy executive chef pays his kitchen and front house staff a decent cut of that price. Kinda doubt it though. Hopefully the wealthy clientele tips well.
