Top five priciest restaurants in the USA.
I'm relieved Masa was #1, because that shit is ridiculous.
Seriously -- $400 for a 30-course Omakase dinner? Yeah, I *love* me some sushi, but that's INSANE.
I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
$400 for a 30-course Omakase dinner
I can see myself paying it if I had the money. I don't, so it's a moot point, but I can see it.

You could pay me $400 to not eat it! Hell, you wouldn't even have to pay me!

For $400 I want more than a meal, even a really excellent meal.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Omakase has a way of making me pay the big bucks.
Not that big, but I've dropped some cash on it.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
lori: That is awesome. I am almost positive I can get them here, because we have lots of Hispanic foods, but very little Japanese. Except pocky. For some reason I can get pocky at my grocery store. Which I'm not complaining about, mind you, just thinking they could maybe add, I dunno, rice? Or miso?
Anyway. I love sour foods, too. And bitter. And hot.

Allyson, that's awful. Grr.
I have trouble believing Canlis is the priciest restaurant in these parts. Yes, it's expensive and iconic, but I thought the Herb Farm would set you back more $$.
I noticed the article specifed a la carte, which isn't an option at Herb Farm.
(We'll do Herb Farm in 2009, I guess. For our 10 year.)

Same here. Don't have much of a sweet tooth, but salty, spicy, sour all work for me.
