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:

What a beautifully-written review. Thank you for taking the time.

Honestly, given the wines you drank at Table 55 I'm surprised the price wasn't higher. (You two were clearly pretty high yourselves with all that wine ... )
