Course 3 - Le First Entrée - Fence Gate Inn Wagyu Meat Pie- The meat pie served at the Fencegate Inn near Lancashire, Britain, is an attempt to show us just how classy a pile of nondescript meat and mushrooms can be. The cost for the whole affair comes to $16,170, making your slice a mere $2,020. That's around (for arguments sake) £10,000 for a meat pie.  I wonder if you bought two, on subsequent days, if they'd give you a part exchange against the shit you had that morning. |

It's Japanese beef. (Kobe)
Given that there isn't a lot of land available to raise them, it comes in at a premium..but that price is ridiculous.

Well that makes all the difference in the world then  . If Jon Bon Jovi and Jared Leto came in naked serving it to me on a golden platter I wouldn't pay that price for it!! Some people have more money than sense  |

Kobe beef was eaten by Bond (the novel anyway): You Only Live Twice.
They'll charge what people will pay. Some have the cash.

 Aye. Paying more than the average NMW weekly pay to see a band for a few hours is admitting you would pay as much for a menu article....or something. Bon Jovi Fritters - A succulent potato wrap in formulaic batter seasoned with a healthy dose of commercially standardised piss rock. Served with a golden wig and screaming menstruating teenage girls. Superlatively palatable.

A ' waffer' thin slice of peppered Leto rump, a bargain at $5000. You'd lap that up.  *trimmings extra

No guys, really I wouldn't  . I did not pay £200 to see Jovi at the O2 this year as they are ripping the piss out of the fans with those ticket prices, I bought tickets for 2 nights at £45 each  . The only time I've ever paid over the odds to see them was when Aileen and I went to the Giants at New Jersey. |

For some personal service though? Don't give us it! There'd have to be Paramedics standing by with a defibrillator and an industrial grade generator to run it. If I could get the two of those lads to serve up a bit of dinner (wearing tuxedo's and working the room a bit) then I reckon that I could get £600 a plate for 100 diners. Easily.  (For charity..obviously. ) |

(For charity..obviously. ) I'm quite sure you could make a bomb if you could arrange it but I wouldn't be one of those interested. I've shook Jon's hand, been face to face with him and Jared came out after the gig a few weeks ago and thanked us all for our support. Thats as close as I'd like to be thank you very much. Don't think Jared would look too hot in a tux with his mohawk at the moment How the hell did this thread get to lets gang up and pick on Maz night? |
