Eating out is always a great experience.
There is something special about sitting at a restaurant
and being served some good food in a great ambience,
even though it tends to lighten our pockets a little bit.
And sometimes, more than just a little bit!
Here's a look at some of the most expensive restaurants in the world.
23.
Joel Robuchon.
When the chef of a restaurant is given the title of Chef of the Century by a reputable food guide,
there has to be something special right?
And great food is exactly what is on offer at the Joel Robuchon
which is located in Las Vegas.
The cost for dining here comes to about $230 per person
but considering that its from the chef of the century,
it is not really that big a deal is it?
22.
Beige.
When a much celebrated chef and a huge fashion brand come together, it has to be for something
really special right?
Located in Tokyo, Beige is a very special restaurant
which serves French cuisine made with Japanese ingredients.
The taste is apparently pretty interesting and exciting,
as it should be because it costs around $259 per person.
21.
Misoguigawa.
Well this is actually a chain of 3 restaurants
which are found in the Japanese cities of Osaka, Kobe and Kyoto.
The restaurants are really fancy and they have a specialty dish,
which is actually a multi course meal.
And its not just the price of $270 per person which makes the restaurant special.
If you want their specialty dish, you will have to order at least 5 days in advance!
Kind of makes the food sound good even before eating doesn't it?
20.
Varvary.
Considering that the chef behind the conception of Varvary
was an established geophysicist before turning to the kitchen at 40,
you would think that it would be a pretty special place.
Located in Moscow, the Varvary is that and more.
In fact, so good is the Varvary
that it is often considered to the place to get the best food in Moscow.
Not bad, but then it does come with a heavy price tag of $270!
19.
Hertog Jan.
When it comes to food, the ingredients make a lot of difference.
Which is what makes the Hertog Jan special.
Located in Bruges, Belgium,
they are known for using ingredients grown in their own farm to make their meals.
And well, they also do charge a lot for their services as a meal here would cost around $275!
18.
De Librije.
When it comes to food, taste precedes everything.
And since it is a known fact
that out of season veggies never taste as good as the ones grown in a proper environment,
De Librije uses only regional and seasonal ingredients for their food.
Located in Zwolle, Netherlands, De Librije is a pretty fancy place and one can expect
to shell out around $290 for a meal.
17.
French laundry.
Now this is as misleading a name as any.
There is nothing to do with laundry here except for maybe the pristine uniforms of the staff
and even the food served here is not French but American cuisine!
The French Laundry is located in Yountville, USA and even though its name may be misleading,
the food is actually very good and they make the use of the finest of ingredients.
A meal here would generally cost about $297 per person.
16.
The Fat Duck.
Cooking is an experience and the more you do it, the better you get.
No one would probably no that more than the chef of the Fat Duck who is pretty much self taught
and as a result most of the dishes served here are unique.
The fat duck is the highest rated restaurant in Britain
and as such, its price of $300 matches that fame!
15.
Chef's table.
Located in Brooklyn fare in New York,
it is the only 3 michelin star rated restaurant in Brooklyn.
And considering that Michelin stars are just about the highest ratings for a restaurant,
it is a pretty big deal.
The Chef's table is extremely exclusive, and has a seating capacity of just 18.
But the food is exceptional and they serve mostly Japanese and French cuisine.
There is a 15 course tasting menu on available here and comes with a hefty price tag of $306!
14.
Schloss Schauenstein.
Dining takes on a different hue altogether when it is combines with a great ambience.
And considering that castles are pretty much famous for their lavish feasts,
the Schloss Schauenstein scores pretty big by being located in a castle in Furstenau, Switzerland.
The décor of the restaurant is medieval and the food is exceptional.
Perhaps that is why there is a price tag of $355 per person here!
13.
Gordon Ramsay.
When one of TV's most respected chefs opens his own restaurant, it has to be fancy right?
After all, it is pretty much like you are part of the limelight!
And it costs pretty much like that only with the dining cost per person coming to $355.
But to its credit, the Gordon Ramsay restaurant was awarded 3 michelin stars in 2001 and it
has held on to that since!
12.
Aragawa.
Located in Tokyo Japan,
this restaurant was once rated as the most expensive restaurant in the world by Forbes!
The Aragawa is a pretty exclusive place with seating only for 22 people.
That obviously means that people generally have to wait to get in, sometimes for months!
And considering that the cost for a meal here is about $370,
it might just give you enough time to save up for it!
But one thing that makes Aragawa so sought after among foodies is the Wagyu beef,
which comes from just a single local farm!
11.
Restaurant Crissier.
Switzerland is probably one of the most beautiful countries in the world.
And any restaurant there is bound to be located amidst amazing scenic beauty.
But what sets the Crissier apart from the rest is that it has extremely wonderful staff
who make you feel special.
Combine that with a wide variety of delectable dishes,
it surely makes for one hell of an experience.
Of course, the price tag of $375 is also pretty special!
10.
LÁrpege.
This one earned its 3 michelin stars way back in 1996,
and in the years since, hasn't lost its touch bit!
The Larpege is located in Paris and considering that the city is known for its glamour quotient,
there is just no doubt that the restaurant adds to it.
The most legendary dish here is hot-cold eggs,
and you can pretty much gauge how expensive the places
as it charges $400 for that dish!
9.
Michel Bras Toya.
When a great view is on offer, the food becomes that much better!
And that is what makes Michel Bras Toya so special.
Located in Toya, Japan, the restaurant has a fabulous view of the volcanic lake Toya.
The cuisine served here is mostly French, but with a Japanese twist to it.
Eating here is not something everyone can afford though, as the cost per person here
would come to about $410!
8.
Ultraviolet.
Located in Shanghai, China, Ultraviolet offers a great dining experience with a light show,
course themed music and even the table is projected with the diner's name.
And not just the ambience, Ultraviolet also has very good food
and a meal here would set you back by about $450!
7.
Urasawa.
If you want to impress someone by taking them to a fancy place but cant really afford it,
try getting a booking in Urasawa.
Located in Beverly Hills, the restaurant has a very limited seating of just 10,
and you might not get a booking!
But then it does offer a 30 course meal, so if you can afford it,
it should be a really good experience!
It would cost about $488 to dine here!
6.
Ithaa Undersea Restaurant.
When you have a restaurant where you not only get amazing food,
but an out of the world experience,
it is definitely something everyone must experience.
The Ithaa restaurant is located in Maldives, or to be precise under Maldives.
The restaurant is 5 metres below the Indian Ocean and has a view to die for.
That of course comes with a price which might actually kill you with a meal costing about
$500 per person.
But considering that it was called the most beautiful restaurant by the New York daily news,
it might just be worth the experience!
5.
Restaurant Guy Savoy De Paris.
Considering that the restaurant is run by 3 michelin star chef Guy Savoy,
who is known for training the masterchef Gordon Ramsay himself,
the restaurant is pretty much special.
It is located in Paris and a meal here would cost around $525 per person.
4.
Plaza Athenee.
The restaurant belongs to the celebrated chef Alain Ducasse and is located in Paris.
Considering that combination, it is easy to assume that it would be pretty pricey
but it kind of does justice to the price tag of $550
by using some very rare ingredients in the food.
And the ambience will definitely make you feel spoilt.
The seating at the restaurant is below chandeliers made of 10,000 glittering crystals!
3.
Kitcho.
In Japan there is a tradition called the kaiseki.
It is basically a ceremonial multi course meal that originated with Japanese tea ceremonies.
And Kitcho is a restaurant that is considered the high temple of kaiseki.
So obviously, it would be a really special deal dining at Kitcho.
And considering that it costs about $600 to dine here, it does feel special as you will
definitely feel lighter with an emptier pocket!
2.
Masa.
Located in New York, Masa is the most expensive restaurant in the US according to many estimates.
And since it only has seating capacity for 26, it is often booked weeks in advance.
The special thing about Masa is that the chef actually prepares the menu himself!
And not just that, it also gets its ingredients fresh fish and Kobe beef
flown straight from Japan.
Considering that much effort, it really is not surprising that the price for a meal here,
without the beverages, is around $809!
1.
Sublimotion.
Now here is a dining experience that is truly unique.
Sublimotion is a restaurant in Ibiza Spain
and it is currently the most expensive restaurant in the world.
The reason?
Dining is lifted from just food here to an art form where you are accompanied with a
full on show and the whole experience lasts about 3 hours.
And the food is special in itself, being a 15-20 course meal.
Of course, all that does end up costing a bomb
with a dinner here coming to around $1850 per person.
