8 most expensive dishes in the world Restaurants cooking

The fact that we eat every day, does not go to any comparison with what is served in elite restaurants. But even in such places there are dishes that can afford one of the ten or even a hundred visitors. The point is price - the most expensive dish of the world is estimated at a thousand dollars, and of course, even well-endowed man (I'm not talking about multi) can not afford to spend a fortune on breakfast, lunch and dinner. Interestingly, as someone from the readers Xage tried something like that?  

Saffron. Surprised? I was also surprised that some spice in our time can cost more than gold. Saffron is prepared from the stigmas of a flower purple saffron crocus. Each flower only three such stigma, and to produce one hundred grams of spice (dry) is approximately 50 thousand (!) Flowers. Such quantity of flowers crocus be enough to cover their football field. For saffron spices are needed not only flowers, but also the workers and laboratory equipment. Half a kilo of saffron can cost from $ 500 to $ 5000. 

Diamond caviar. This is the highest quality grade beluga caviar unusual light shade. The older the fish, the lighter is received caviar - beluga and since now quite rare, old beluga generally valued by its weight in gold. This caviar has a very subtle and delicate taste. Bank for the caviar, ALMAS, made of 24-carat gold, and is the perfect setting for your precious content. This dish can taste only in a London restaurant Caviar House & Prunier, which is located on Piccadilly Street. The cost - nearly 50 thousand U.S. dollars per kilogram. 

White truffle. This type of truffles growing in northern Italy, and their value can reach almost 3 thousand dollars for a half-kilogram. Record price was paid by Stanley Ho, the owner of the casino, which paid 330 thousand U.S. dollars for three pounds of white truffles. 

Beef marble meat. Connoisseurs say that the steak from the meat of the marble is different and tastes and smell and texture. All because the meat may be given only cows' todzima ", and not all, but only those that" sit "on a special diet. Their diet is even a beer. In the U.S. the usual price for such meat - $ 40 - $ 150 per half-kilogram. 

Coffee Kopi Luwak. This type of coffee is known for being made from coffee beans that have passed through the gastrointestinal tract of the Asian palm civet, are relatively rare animal. This marten eats berries, but the coffee beans pass through the esophagus intact, after which they are collected by specially trained workers. This type of coffee produced in Sumatra, Java, Malaysia and the Philippines. In the year collectors collect only 500 pounds of beans, which may explain the high price of coffee - $ 300 U.S. dollars for 0.5 pounds. 

"Diamond" martini. Actually, it is a regular martini, but instead of olives, the bartender puts a 1.6-carat diamond. Of course, the taste of a martini should correspond to the diamonds, and therefore the price for such a cocktail is $ 16000. Try it can only be at the hotel Ritz-Carlton, Tokyo, Japan. 

Chocolate truffles. This is a special treat is made by hand employees of the company Knipschildt Chocolatier, which is located in Connecticut, USA. The recipe includes cocoa Valrhona truffle with a large number of exclusive products. The cost - about $ 6000 per kilo. 

Nino's Bellisima. This pizza is not similar to those sold in fast food chain New York City, as well as any other of such institutions. Pizza Nino's Bellisima includes lobster, crab meat and 6 other types of caviar. If you have an extra thousand dollars, you can try
