Idk if it counts but I got into a barfight one time, broke a dudes nose and had to pay $2000 in med bills. But yeah it was worth it.

I ate at the Blackbird in Chicago and I didn't pay for it so it was extremely worth it to me.
It was probably not worth it for the person who was paying because I was only about fourteen, but on that day I got to eat an amazing sea scallop the size of my head and I'll never forget it.

I don't know exactly but it was around € 250,- for two people.

Took my wife out to the Eiffel Tower restaurant in Vegas for her birthday. That was a 380 dollar meal after the bottle and dessert.

Most I ever spent was on a nice seafood place in Rome with 5 other Americans from my wife's choir who had no clue what they were getting into or how to order. Spent over 600 euros to get their broke teacher and college student asses put of their without getting the cops called or offending the wait staff more than they had.

It's a hard lesson as an American to admit, but never dine out in foreign countries with Americans.

Spent $84 on a delivery of one "large" pizza with 4 toppings from Mountain Mike's. I don't know why I didn't just close the door on his face.

>>12291460
>blaming a country for your wife's retarded acquaintances
Cringe.

>>12291427
there was a two/two and a half hundred per person omakase in LA; that wasnt worth it, we've had better omakase at a quarter of the price.
then there was this kobe teppanyaki place in tokyo for about the same price; that one was definitely worth it, best meal i ever had

>>12291427
$120 on a porter house steak, whine, and cheese cake at a really fancy steak house.

Definately was not worth it. Probably could have made the same shit at home for a fraction of the price and just as good.

Got me laid though so I guess tjere is tjat.

>>12291427
~$300 for me and gf at a Ruths Chris including drinks and tip. I had just turned $50 into $3700 playing blackjack at the casino so I didn't mind splurging at all, it was very good but wouldn't be worth it under normal circumstances.

>>12291471
I am blaming her retarded friends, check your English reading comprehension. These were the same people who early that day asked an ethnic Serbian working at a cafe why he chose to move to Rome.

~$350 at BLT steak in Washington DC.

~$90 for 10oz Wagyu top cap, two of those and wine plus desert and tip.

>>12291460
You and your wife seem like a good pair of idiots with company to match

>>12291570
Elaborate.

>>12291583
You all seem like retarded tourists. What more do you need me to spoonfeed you?

>>12291427
kobe beef in kobe

yes

100 bucks for 3 people. Uh, yeah, it was alright. I like steak.

>>12291543
>I am blaming her friends
>"never dine out in foreign countries with Americans"
Check your writing comprehension, you insufferable faggot.

not me personally but at the restaurant i work at i saw a table of six spend over $5000 on wine and food

Once again that's an indictment of my country men, why are you perceiving it otherwise?

>>12291591
So guilt by association, I can at least understand that, though I disagree.

>>12291631
No. You are. If those are the people you and your annoying wife hang around, you’re likely not different. And everyone around you can see it most likely.

>>12291623
I refuse to believe you're actually this fucking stupid, holy shit. Cringey as hell.

>>12291427
Small portions of crappy food for people who don't know any better

>>12291640
Retard doesn't know when to give up. MUH WIFES FRIENDS MADE ME LOOK STUPID.

In reality this autist probably got blown the fuck out, his wife's "friends" probably ran a train on that whore while he paid their bill.

>>12291602
What are you finding difficult to comprehend

>>12291427
$100 and 5 hour wait at a steakhouse.
It was alright.

>>12291622
I know what I said.

Jacob's & co in toronto. Our table spent like 5 grand... my meal alone was 450 dollars. Steak, wine, sides shits expensive. But, I also won a voucher that paid for half my meal from a raffle. Was worth it.

>>12291602
Jesus are you retarded, or did all the mud cakes and rapefugee cum give you some kind of brain disease?

>>12291427

>most expensive dining experience
HS prom. Food was excellent, service was immaculate. ~2-300 bucks, no booze with tip.

>was it worth it
Not really. I was 17, still am a fag and she brought a knife into the situation.

>>12291863
Nice cuck fantasy.
KEK!!!

>>12292120
>She brought a knife into the situation
WAT

>>12291460
What happened?

>>12291427
The other day I paid for a party of like 30 people at a bbq that was about 30 bucks per head, so it rounded about a grand the whole table.
But if it's a single meal, I don't really spend much,instead of dining once in a place that costs $200, I prefer to dine 10x in a place that costs $20. I don't eat much, so usually a $20 meal for me is a lot.

>>12292120
>HS prom. Food was excellent, service was immaculate. ~2-300 bucks, no booze with tip.
>she brought a knife
I was here the month this website started and I've never stopped loving her. She'll always be beautiful.

>>12291427
I once paid full price for pizza hut and got extra cheese, it was not worth it.

>>12291427
My plant has a bi-yearly training/exchange visit where operators visit a foreign plant. When on a visit to a French plant we had to drive about 2 hours from our hotel to the restaurant but it was great, it was one of those ridiculously fancy places with tiny portions and some dishes were with decadent stuff like gold leaf. Luckily everything was payed for by our companies.
I was there with a french delegation from the head of corporation and they looked at me in disgust when I asked our waiter if they also had beer, just after he was done with a long talk about all the wines they would be having that night.

>>12291451

>>12292542
I bought her a nice meal, we went to prom, after prom we went by her moms house so she could pick up some weed (she picked up meth and a knife, but I was ignorant as fuck to a lot of things back then) and as shes riding me while I'm thinking about Edward Norton the conversation shifts very progressively from
>"tie me up anon"
>ok
>"here, use this"
>knife
Anyways I broke up with her a couple weeks later for other reasons, but she legit thought that meal implied we'd have a future together

>>12291427
$150ish each Greek dinner. Would have been more, but I found out about the place through after-work drinks with the owner around the corner from the trade show we were both at. He found out my girlfriend at the time had never had greek food, so he decided to hit all of the bases and basics, even saganaki, which his restaurant usually doesn't do.

Worth it. Probably the best meal I've ever had, definitely the best lamb, and the most interesting interpretation of moussaka.

>>12291602
Assuming you aren't actually profoundly retarded I'd like to remind you that pretending to be so is commonly regarded as the lowest form of trolling.

Rack of lamb at the fanciest restaurant in town ($70ish bucks for two people). It was delicious, but not the best meal I've ever eaten.

>>12294537
>It was delicious, but not the best meal I've ever eaten.
This indicates that you can remember the best meal you've ever eaten. Well, maybe not, but at least it indicates that you can remember some better meal. What was it?

>>12291427
Narisawa, 2 star restaurant, around 10 courses.

It was about 350 a person so 700 total. Absolutely and completely worth every yenny.

But the 100 dollar of bottle we also got was just as good as anything I could get at the grocery store. Tasted good but definitely not worth it in the slightest.

>>12291427
Melting Pot, the fondu restaurant. Came out to well over $100 for the three courses and drinks for myself and my date. Great food though and cool atmosphere.

About 80 bucks on sushi. I'd do it again.

>>12294662
I think the ostrich steak I had in Cape Town is on the throne and the hartebeast I had during the same trip is probably second. The other game meats I tried were pretty shit. When I rank memorable meals I tend to do it against similar items, so it would be easier to name the top 5 burgers, for example, than top 5 foods.

$230 for some a5 wagyu, a few tapas, two lb crusty moldy month aged ribeye, two desserts. Had been working a pretty miserable office job and got to a concert near segerstrom center way early and decided to go to Vaca and go ham (or beef, I guess, mostly)

worth it - literal tears of joy were cried. The gregarious east coast folks next to me were like "Amar texted us to come for the soft shell"

I had told my waiter I gave no fucks and wanted whatever was fucking great that night and even after everything I ordered ('m 5' 9" 170 lbs fit-ish at the time and was by myself) the server whispered "there's 4 crab left do you want one?"

Would order it all again probably if I was still in the area and needed another pick me up type boost to beat back the drudgery of certain phases of life.

>>12294974
>$230 for some a5 wagyu
$230 would get you MAYBE a single steak of A5 Wagyu.

Wholesale prices for A5 Wagyu make a ~14oz new york strip around $100. Restaurant pricing on that would be much higher.

>>12291427
A $100 per person or so last year with my parents when I took them to a restaurant where my Dad took my Mom for a fraternity dinner when they were just dating. The food was great and ambiance was perfect. When we were leaving my Dad turned around and saw that the music we were hearing was from an actual pianist and not a recording. While enjoying after dinner drinks they told me stories about their college years.

WORTH
EVERY
PENNY!

>>12294996
$65 for 3 oz.

>>12295002
lmao 3oz, what's the point jesus.

>>12295002
probably of a shitty cut too like skirt or flank.

>>12294996
same guy, sorry for double post - I had recently read a brad Scott article on the restaurant gradings for prime beef or I would have balked at the $100 for the ribeye and $65 for the 3 oz of wagyu. That was the minimum purchase for that selection. It was nearly marble white. I'm just clarifying, I'm glad you know your stuff.

>>12295003
>>12295006
To be clear, I was able to pick out what I wanted from the case, and considering I was already ordering a 2 lb ribeye at $55 ish a pound and the tapas, it seemed reasonable enough - when in Rome or something, my idea is that once you've entered a fine dining establishment is not to time to decide to be frugal

>>12295006
iirc it was ribeye. my body had a pretty visceral reaction to the taste, no ragretz

>>12295013
honestly the ribeye sounds dirt cheap.

I had a 36oz ribeye that was $105.

>>12295021
Where was that? Was it nice? This was without sides, just cooked medium rare with some coarse salt and pepper on the plate off to the side.

>>12295033
BLT prime in Miami.

I've also been to the BLT steak in Washington DC and New York, as well as the BLT prime in Washington DC. I also ate at the BLT steak on Miami Beach before it moved to the current BLT prime Miami location.


Great steaks, obviously you're paying a bit more due to the "class" of the location. But it's still a damn good steak. They've got excellent filets and other cuts besides.

>>12295047
I'm a west coast anon at the moment, but I wouldn't be opposed to scoping one of those locations out if I make it out there sometime - good show anon

sometimes you gotta pay to keep the rabble out, even if I pull a WWJD sometimes, cavorting with "the elite" (or at least its pretenders) has its perks as well

Pied de Cochon, dad paid for it since it was my birthday but I think it was about 250 leafbux.
I'm glad I went but the richness and quantities were just obscene, we're both big eaters and we barely made it out alive.

An Italian restaurant in rome. Think it came to 50 bucks a person, but we had wine, appetizers and entrees. It was very delicious but I really cant justify spending 50 dollars on dinner when people are starving.

I wont do it again.

>>12295073
as devil's advocate and someone who regularly feels guilty over being a life and my life being worth more than others' economically because of where I was born, how exactly do you justify your existence when people are starving? That food you were purchasing was going to be eaten or thrown away whether you paid $50 a head for it or not - maybe work on getting gun running warlords to stop misallocating Unicef aid instead?

>>12292789
me too bro, me too

>>12295090
I agree somewhat. Its more of a thought experiment that illustrates how a life lived in pursuit of material niceties and bodily satisfaction is basically evil.

How did I end up being the one with 50 dollars to blow on dinner? Thats a very complicated and interesting question.

>>12295073
Yeah, Rome is full of scammers trying to rip tourists off.

>>12295102
It really is. We figured out pretty quickly that the restaurants near tourist spots were outrageously priced and low quality.

>>12295100
That is an interesting question, but do you remember the sign up sheet for Erf? Your recognition of these inequalities or imbalances is at least a nice start

Kobe beef in Kyoto Japan on my honeymoon. Wife and I ordered Waygu and Kobe together, I had 2 glasses of Yamazaki 25. Total was like $500ish USD

>>12291460
I never understood why Europeans, on top of being illiterate (this conversation being an example), they also feel inclined to ambush someone when they sense that someone is personally attacking them when you didn't do anything else other than point out the repercussions of bringing idiot tourists to foreign countries, rather than blaming those countries in themselves.

>>12291427
Celebrated a friends birthday at Shikis in Sydney. Lots of sake and beer, nigiri, tempura, sukiyaki, dessert was free though because of the birthday and the bill ended up over 500 bucks, so that was nice. I don't know if this is expensive or not because we were four people, but it was pretty tasty.

€70/person at a very nice fish restaurant. Definitely worth it because everything was top tier, it's the only expensive place I'd eat at regularly, if I could.

>>12295158
It was good, but not like 2x as good as USDA prime

>>12291427
No. Japanese restaurants are a fucking scam.

I used to be a server at Alinea with my roomates. Took home so much incredible food and absurd amount of tips. Hard to get a lot of hours tho.

I ate at Passion in Playa del Carmen in Mexico. Only came out to 120 USD with wine pairing. Was pretty tasty, would do again.

>>12291448
Didn’t pay = wasn’t expensive.
Your experience is invalid.

A first class meal in the upper deck of a United 747-400 from San Francisco to Tokyo.

Yup - you plebs with your Southwest Airlines pretzel bags will never know just how good airline food can be. I had creole shrimp with vegetable medley, and it was genuinely , sincerely delicious.

>>12291427
20$ Chinese buffet, it's was solid.

>>12291543
Why did he move to Rome?

I spent 80 dollars at BJs Brewhouse because my girlfriend (ex) told me I had to spend more money on her on our anniversary. Dumped her next day. Fuckin Bitch.

>>12297459
i mean, if you're THAT poor she probably wouldn't have stayed with you for that long anyway.

If you're not that poor and you're simply too jewish to take a girl out for a nice meal occasionally, then you're just an asshole.

>>12297229
you sound like a fucking baby

>>12297247
i had a pretty good meal flying 1st class from SF to Tampa. i forget the airline since it was about 2 years ago and hopefully the last time i will ever fly.
some salmon which was as good as some of the food i've had in various 'nice' restaurants in SF

About 1000 euros in a starred restaurant in Paris. I didn't pay though and we had a lot, a LOT of wine.

>>12291427
Either my second anniversary with an old high school gf or a new york trip to a meme ninja themed sushi restaurant, but mostly because of drinks.

I don't remember the exact price points but those were the only times I can recall spending over 100 on a meal. I think they were worth it, but not caring about money when you're among friends feels like cheating.

>>12297962

Binge eating stuff from multiple convenience stores and fact food drive thrus, vomiting in between to make room. Think I blew like $60 that night, which doesnt sound like much but you have to consider how cheap the food was

I once spent about $1200 for a dinner for 2, a limited seating Chef's multi plate dinner tasting menu at the Hotel Del Coronado in San Diego, served in candlelight on a open terrace facing the ocean.

Was highly romantic, but bitch GF of nearly 4 years broke up with me 2 days later.

thankfully didn't do that sappy 'propose in a restaurant' schtick.

I've had several extremely expensive dining experiences in my life, and they were worth it at the time, but I don't think I'd go to any of them again. It's special, but not so fucking special that I want to spend another $800 - $1000 or more at one sitting.

>>12297229
I fucking hate the name of that place
The possessive in "Ruth's" that suggests "Chris" is an adjective drives me insane
will never, ever, ever go there, fuck that place

>>12291465
My friend ranted and raved how how good it was, then one opened in town. We went, got a big ass pizza and it was the greasiest, burnt, worst tasting pizza I've ever had. I'm a fat fuck with shit taste buds so consuming large amounts of bland food is normal with me, but that was the only time I turned down pizza in my life so far.

>>12297459
What the fuck is it with women and literally wanting to waste money. My friend showed his ex his savings once and was asking why he hasn't gone on trips or shopping. She didn't understand that retirement is a thing she will eventually have to do, and nice pictures at a tourist trap aren't gonna keep you housed in your 70's. Likely chance she's gonna be someones dumb trophy wife.

>>12298465
To be fair, if I'm with someone for a few years, find out we've got $100,000+ in savings of various types, I shouldn't be vilified for wanting to spend a few thousand on a trip every few years.

>>12297474
It's more that she is being ungrateful when she is likely doing fuck all for him on THEIR anniversary why is it always all about the female on their anniversary and then in addition she gets to decide how much is good enough? Nah u can find a better woman than that

>>12298492
A small vacation every few years is fine, but he told me her eyes lit up and she was convinced he would spend it all on them doing stuff, ALL of his savings. She didn't realize this is what normal people do, not spend everything going out or taking cruises while you owe thousands in car payments and credit card bills, which she did. It was like she thought he won the lottery.

>>12298530
All girls spend all their money as soon as they get it, it is normal for them

There is a restaurant in Tokyo, that has no name. If you are wealthy enough to go, you will receive an invite. You choose your animal, pig, cow, or chicken. Then you fuck that animal. Then they kill it in front of you and bring you the cut you ordered.
I as with my wife at the time, and she couldn't bring herself to let the cow lick her out, which I think marred the experience somewhat, but all in all it was a very satisfying orgasm for me, and a very good steak afterwards.
Sublime.
Worth it.

$80 on korean barbeque in LA with my friends, it was pretty damn good.

Eleven Madison park was about 300pp. Definitely worth it. We had a couple drinks so it came out to about 700 for 2 people and we were there for almost 4 hours. In Japan we did omakase at a couple 2* places and it ran about 250pp as well. Although I learned on that trip I prefer street food or a la Carte because I really can't eat that much all at once.

>>12291427

First class is great but domestic (american) first class dining is completely shat on by Asian and me3 carriers. Just look up first class menus for JAL,Cathay, Emirates, its really out there. Us carriers get btfo constantly. JAL is probably my favorite but only departing from narita

>>12298939
What a bitch

I was at a restaurant by the beach in Long Branch NJ and got a fillet for 50 bucks I think it was. The steak was alright but underseasoned and the mash potato that came with it was bland as fuck as well. Tried oysters that the restaurant is apparently known for and nearly barfed. Good thing my dads boss was paying cause I'd have been pissed since my normal 15-20 dollar price range is way better in terms of quality.

>>12291427
$127 for 3 medium pizzas during a typhoon. It was day 2 of a 4 day bender stuck in my buddy's house. A little Japanese guy delivered it on a bicycle 100% worth it.

Spent 11.59 on a fried pork tenderloin sandwich with french fries. Couple bucks for a pibb and another six for a slice of cheesecake with house made warm cherry sauce.

Paired with the competitive cornhole on the tv it was an experience that couldn't be beat. I almost cried.

For reference this is from the fanciest restaurant in town. 10 West in Cicero Indiana. Population 3500, 96% white.

>>12301632
>deep fried everything
>mass market soda
>watching competitive cornhole

so this is what wh*te "people" mean when they say they have "culture"...

>>12302635
White culture and lovin it, baby.

Got a meal at Five Guys. This will be my last post here since my data is almost used up and I can't afford my contract anymore. I'll probably sell my phone which was the last way to connect myself with my family since I've been living on the streets for the past few months.

It was a good burger and worth the price I paid though. Bless you all.

Spent $300 for myself at a michelin star sushi place in NY with wine.

Some of the most divine bluefin I've ever had with what I can only convince myself was magical tamago, eel and wagyu. I'm just a pleb though so I couldn't really justify doing something like that except on the fucking rare occasion.

>>12298443
So much fucking this. That same thing as bothered me for as long as I've known about that restaurant. I won't even type that name. Fuck them. Fuck them in their fucking ass.

>>12302635
White culture is an oxymoron and even then, it's as barren as the Death Valley desert.

My girlfriend treated me to a 5 course meal at a sushi place. Ended up costing her $300 total. More than being tasty or heavenly or whatever, it was just a fun experience. Something like that every once in a while is nice.

>>12291427
Ha ha, no pizza and no Chinese

>>12298451
completely over rated. anyone who thinks its "good" just likes to spend a fuck ton of money. the pepperonis are good, I'll give them that... but why the actual fuck are they taught to purposely burn the pizza
I had two friends that used to work at my local one. the manager was fucking retarded, they were overworked, and forced to clock out and stay overtime or be fired.

I have eaten a tasting menu with wine at La Gavroche. £300+ per person

I want to fuck this retro loli

>>12291427
Most expensive meal was either at a French place in town that is fairly legit, we got anfew appetizers, a lamb rack and muscles for a but over a hundo. Also took another friend to the local dry aged steak house and got the ninety day aged tomahawk, the cheese and meat board, and drinks. Technically more expensive but I think they were about the same because we split the steak.

Best meal ever though? Steak and eggs with another good friend at sassy's strip club on easter morning. The food was decent amd the place was empty tonwe hung around with strippers all day basically. Strippers (at least in portland) are fucking fun as shit.

went on a date with a girl, cost about 100 bucks. wine alone was 25. fucking ridiculous, all we had was some pasta that I could have made myself for less than 10% of the price

on the other hand we were dead in the centre of berlin on a beautiful day and I have some great memories of it

$150 or so at a sushi place with tip.

Amerifat stronk.

fucking disney world lol
Had lunch at the Boathouse with GF. Dozen oysters, couple of beers, prosecco for her, and entrees. Think it was a little over $100 after tip?

Probably Fogo or various AYCE blue crabs (md) both are around $60

Fogo rushed us out when they realize we weren't drinking. Fuck them probably never go back.

About $950 total including tips at 11 Madison Park NYC, only reason I got off so easy is my wife got fucking hammered on the dessert wines and was nearly physically incapable of spending any more money.

To clarify a bit, this was our 5 year wedding anniversary, 10 years as a couple total, and we had agreed ahead of time to go balls to the wall in all possible ways. I had budgeted 10k for the 5 day weekend, $2000 per day, and between all of my excesses and hers, including the $950 meal, it was still sub $3k, felt fucking great man. The gift that keeps on giving is how jealous her friends were and how it made me look like a badass.

Was it worth? What entress? Where isthe boathouse..... anon yourpost raises more questions than it answers

My parents took me to De Librije once (Dutch 3 Michelin star restaurant). I'd say it was worth it to get an idea of the shit high end restaurants do for that last Michelin star, but I don't feel the urge to go there again (I also can't afford that shit). The food was fantastic, but the main 'value' is the shit around it. One dish was just a tomato soup, but they had made a decorative and fully edible little boat to float on it, with the tomato skin as a sail. The soup was fantastic, but obviously 80% of their manpower went into making the fucking boat. Another dish was a very tasty trout, but they'd given him glasses made out of lemon peel and stuff. I think my parents paid over 300 euro per person for a 4 course meal.
The owners also have a hotel close to the restaurant where they host cooking workshops and 'only' 1 Michelin star dining, which boils down to exactly the same food quality but none of the dumb expensive food art. You pay about a third of the price you do in the main restaurant. I've been to the hotel on multiple occasions and I'd say that is probably actually worth it for the food, not just the experience, but I still can't afford to go there without getting sponsored by my parents.

What we do to avoid this is have a one celebrity exception. Like, one celebrity we're allowed to have sex with if we ever get the chance. It keeps things spicy.

Paid $200 for an escort, spent another $50 having a really boring, awkward ass dinner at red lobster, then I got to bone her at a Motel 6. Does this count? (yes, it was worth it)

>tfw Minnie and Rally aren't real

I went to a Spainard tapas place in an expensive neighborhood with a friend that cost $140 total.

It was great but we could've definitely gone to a cheaper place for around the same quality.

>>12309840
I'd probably treat myself there one day.

Vegas can be stupid expensive just because it's Vegas. Delmonico's was good, but I'm not sure it was that good. Next time I wouldn't get the foie gras on top of the steak....the foie gras butter was better.

a $90 wagyu steak in a Tokyo hotel as room service on new years 2014

I once ordered 50 chicken mcnuggets. I ate them in the parking lot.

>>12291427
I went to a fogo de chao once. It was worth it imo

>>12291460
Absolutely true.

~75 Euros for tapas in Barcelona with another American who I had met at the hostel. I have no regrets. Saved the receipt and keep it in my box of random shit from that trip.

About $200 on sushi with my stepbrother at a place in San Francisco while I was high as fuck and drunk. Was fun.

I wouldn't pay more than $50 (a person) for a meal, though, under really any circumstance.

$25 Olive Garden takeout.

I think it's because males tend to be taught more about finances (generally speaking) while females generally aren't. I know a lot of anecdotes (esp. from movies/TV) that show the mom taking care of finances, but I think that's more true when both sides are completely financially illiterate. Among the financially-sophisticated, there seem to be far more males than females.

Absent windfalls, the amount in savings shouldn't suddenly change one's approach to lifestyle. The whole reason the savings exists in the first place is because of the lifestyle.

underrated

Ate at a 2 star michelin sushi restaurant, great stuff. The sushi was absolutely sublime and I managed to try out so many different cuts of seafood and some unique preparations too.

It costed $300 for it which was well worth the price.

That's cuck talk if I ever saw it.

>>12291427
Not actually the most expensive, but I pretty happily spent 40$ on a hamburger and a salmon burger at Chez Monique's. After 3 days of hiking in the rain and eating rehydrated freeze dried rice and mashed potatoes it was definitely worth it.

Most expensive outright was probably some good but nothing special steak at a middling steakhouse in vancouver, I tried a few, but that's boring

My food at Red Lobster added up to $48 one night. That was as much as the other three I was with combined

>>12291427
Funny you should ask. That's actually today, or yesterday, whatever.
Mother's day lunch at a place that does a bunch of seafood and beer.
I had some fried calamari, 6 large garlic butter+parmesan char-grilled oysters, 3 craft beers, and a peach cobbler with white chocolate. My mom had a fried flounder sandwich for take home that I ate tonight.

I spent 66$ + 8$ tip. I can't say whether it was worth it or not until I see how much money I have left after I buy new glasses and a workout bench. The food kicked all kinds of ass though.

Wow, you seem like a bit of a dick.

Dinner for two at Steirereck in die Stadtpark in Vienna - €500 for 8 courses, plus wine flight. Worth every penny, which is more than can be said for other places I've been to and spent almost as much.

>I had just turned $50 into $3700
Yeah I highly doubt that. At $50 a hand that's 74 hands without losing. Even if you doubled down each time you would probably lose about half the time. I don't doubt you won $3700 at the casino, but you sure as shit didn't turn $50 iny $3700 unless you played for hours and hours and we're extremely lucky.

I ate ur momma's pussy and it cost me my dignity

If he were pressing his bets as he won, it could be achieved very rapidly, like less than 8 hands.
