Would you pay 111€ (just over 120 US dollars) for this sandwich




The ingredients include lobster, caviar and truffle.

Translated from the original German:

Christopher Engel first places wafer-thin slices of the herb seitling on top of the toasted bread so that nothing spills through. On top of these are lightly grilled lobster tails. The second slice of bread. On top of this, with slices of cucumber as a base, the fried egg - among its 200,000 or so egg comrades, which the hotel consumes each year, it enjoys the advantage of not ending up as scrambled eggs at the breakfast buffet, but taking on the down-to-earth part, so to speak, in a noble setting. After the third slice of bread and a bit of wafer-thin tomato follows salmon, which is home pickled in the hotel kitchen, followed by finely sliced salad. And the roof, the fourth slice of bread, is finally crowned with a blob of caviar, ten grams of ossietra, which, if ordered separately, would cost 24 euros alone. Black truffle, of course, and the French fries are mixed with thyme-grana-padano. In addition, there is no ketchup, but a few blobs of truffle cream.

I can hardly bear spending $10 on a single meal, let alone 120.

It just seems wasteful.

I see your point, but for me good food isn't wasteful.

Granted, 120 dollars is stretching it

Truffles are very expensive, so the price point isn't bad considering that alone.

I'd try it once, sure.

Why are you entitled if you were offered something for free to try it?

It's like those taste test things at grocery stores for something different or new. I'd not buy the whole thing just to try it but if they're offering it...why not?

You asked if someone would pay for something, their answer is No.

Nowhere does the "No" response to that question suggest you can't get it for free.

I'm a CEman, so obviously I should be able to get something that costs a lot of money, for free

Of course it does, all that shit's the reason why it's so pricey. Take the rich folk shit out and the price would probably drop like $115
