I spent almost, well my dad, $800 for dinner for us in Las Vegas, at the Caesar's Palace.

I think about $350US for a Charlie Trotter's New Year's Eve dinner.
Almost every dish had tons of truffles which I found out that evening that I really did not appreciate in that quanity.

My husband and I had lunch at Pierre Gagnaire and I think it was about $550 or $600. L'Oustau de Bauminere was $550ish for three.
We've had lots of meals in the $300-to-$400-for-two range. When traveling to a good restaurant area, we often book a few of these for the same week. I save the menus and have many framed and hanging in the eating area of the kitchen.

At Caviar Kaspia in Paris, I believe we paid around $300 for a lunch which consisted only of Ossetra Caviar, blinis and vodka. Sure was decadent, if not exactly filling
