Food & Drink I rather eat a $6 burger than this $6,000 burger!

[Contempt]

I'll take this any day... though it'll probably cost fucking $15 these days:

I'd rather just go to your mom's Arbys for free

I don't like caviar and avoid pork so this is a no from me. I also don't think gomd is great to eat. Never tried crab. Will do eventually. But all nin fish sea food is a no for me. Besides calamary. A bit octopus legs is sort of ok.

Jan de Veen has truly outdone himself with the world’s most expensive burger, which is basically a culinary version of a Swiss Army knife—except it costs $6,000 and doesn’t help you open a can of beans.

The patty is a blend of ground A5 Japanese Wagyu beef and chuck short ribs, because why settle for one type of beef when you can have two? It’s topped with white truffles, Paleta Iberico Bellota ham, and onion rings with Dom Perignon in the batter. I guess if you’re going to splurge on a burger, you might as well make it a little tipsy.

And let’s not forget the Beluga caviar and king crab, because nothing says “I’m rich” like eating a tiny fish egg and a piece of sea monster. All of this is nestled between two halves of a saffron gold-leaf bun, which also has some Dom in it. I mean, if you’re going to use gold leaf, you might as well use it as a napkin for your $6,000 burger.

Even the condiments are fancy, with a barbecue sauce that includes Kopi Luwak coffee and Macallan single malt whiskey. I guess if you’re going to have a burger, you might as well make it a little caffeinated and a lot alcoholic.

So, next time you’re at a burger joint and see a $6 burger, just remember—that’s not de Veen’s burger. That’s just the price of the napkin.

Why are we all obsessed with deconstructed avant-garde bullshit? Just give me a greasy double cheeseburger—I promise it won’t need therapy to figure out its identity!

No I would not.

I would eat some of the foods separately and prepared well. But, I'm not looking to eat a poorly prepared overpriced garbage plate.

Just saw a local Jack in the Box commercial for loco moco burger w/onion ring, rice, egg, gravy along with the pattie. Who wants rice in the burger?

Americans are the worst when it comes to dining. We care too much about the ambiance/vibe of the place and not that much on the food. We also believe expensive = good. It makes it really hard to trust any reviews. We 5 star everything too.

When I started dating my wife she would take me to so many random Chinese restaurants/cafes all over California. Most of them had 3 star reviews or less and many of them were rundown hole in the walls. On top of that the service was bad more often than not. However, the food was usually really good and affordable. One thing I can rarely trust are online reviews when it comes to Asian food, especially if it's Chinese...

Can't blame this monstrosity on America at least
