+1.

If you go to a top-notch Cantonese place like Spring Moon or Ming Court for dinner, a single plate may cost you $25-50USD depending on what you get. At those same places, you can have a nice lunch for $30-40 per person trying a variety of things in the form of dim sum.

Buffets at 5-star hotels would definitely be a great splurge. Lunch buffet could be had for ~$50 per person. Dinner is usually pricier by 50% or more. Grand Stanford's Cafe on M is a very solid place and they're often offering discount promotions for lunch.
