https://www.nbcnewyork.com/entertainment/the-scene/serendipity3-sets-guinness-world-record-for-worlds-most-expensive-french-fries/3152081/

From link:

These exclusive fries are made from Chipperbeck potatoes blanched in Dom Perignon Champagne and J. LeBlanc French Champagne Ardenne Vinegar. The fries are then cooked three times with pure goose fat from cage-free geese raised in Southwest France.

The process to create these elevated fries does not stop there. The fries are then seasoned with Guerande Truffle Salt which is hand-harvested from Guerande, France, and then the fries are tossed in Urbani Summer Truffle Oil. They are topped with shaved Crete Senesi Pecorino Tartufello made of milk from sheep that are grazed on the clay-rich hills of Crete Senesi and are then black truffles foraged from valleys and forests in Volterra and Miniato, Italy are added. The fries are also topped with shaved Black Summer Truffles from Umbria, Italy.

The "Creme de la Creme Pommes Frites" are served with an accompaniment of Mornay sauce made with Udder Cream, Black Truffle Butter, Gruyere Truffled Swiss Raclete.

The presentation is also quite the spectacle as the fries come on a Baccarat crystal Arabesque plate and bowl -- and are sprinkled with 23K edible gold dust!

That's a dumb record. So I could take some Ori-da fries, put them in my restaurant, dip them in fancy honey sauce and charge 201 dollars.

How arbitrary can you get.

I'd like to hear how many dishes have been ordered and served - wait time to serving - and the actual comments on taste.... as in - was it worth it? would you order them again?

Pick-up only or do they deliver?

 

[GotGarlic]

I don't even like truffles. They taste like dirt to me.

Well you could do that buttt this restaurant is giving you super duper value for the money with all the extra special ingredients used to create this one of a kind dish.
