I already think that's too much! I feel like I'd be getting the US Bank card just so I can get free 'dinner' at Mise En Place at TPA. Is it really worth all the fuss? Idk
I guess the question becomes how often do you expect to find yourself in airports where there is a participating Priority Pass restaurant, but where you would not otherwise have lounge access -- either because there's no Priority Pass or Centurion Lounge, or because you're not flying DL.
