$5000 Hamburger? No Thanks

From Robin Leach and the Las Vegas Sun: Celebrity Top Chef Hubert Keller has concocted a $5,000 burger at his new restaurant Fleur in Mandalay Bay. He’s sure hit the gastronomic jackpot with this delicacy. The foie gras and black truffle-topped Kobe burger is served on a brioche truffle bun and garnished with the star chef’s special sauce consisting of more high-priced truffles.
To accompany the bust-the-budget billionaire’s burger, guests receive a bottle of Chateau Petrus 1995 poured in high-priced stemware imported from Italy. After the magnificent meal, the team at Fleur ships the glasses to the guest’s home -- at no additional charge, of course.

No, thanks, I'll take A Whopper, McHamburger or any other hamburger that costs under $4.00.
