Table 55 isn’t cheap at a table minimum of $2500, but it was truly sublime and exceptional and so much fun in EVERY way. We had 3 of us to enjoy the experience, so it wasn’t that much more expensive than one of these crazy tasting menus and wine pairings, either. My review in case you’re interested:

The table is very special and Ím definitivly not the target group. Will eat at Le Calandre from your list next month together with some more 1 and 3 star restaurants (funny enough no 2 star at 22 nights in Italy).
