I 'm not sure whether u get wine with that.
For that kind of money I'd demand fries and a pickle.
U get Champagne fries; I 'm not sure about the pickle
Does anyone know where to get it ?
The fine ingredients of what is called simply 'The Burger' include Wagyu beef, white truffles, Pata Negra ham slices, Cristal onion straws, Modena balsamic vinegar, lambs lettuce, pink Himalayan rock salt, organic white wine and shallot infused mayonnaise in an Iranian saffron and white truffle dusted bun.
Burger King in London (Setting a new record, the world's most expensive burger is available at just one restaurant in West London, England, once a week ?- but it will eventually be available to order via a hotline.)
No thanks. It sounds positively disgusting.
Wagyu (和牛, wagyū?) refers to several breeds of cattle genetically predisposed to intense marbling and to producing a high percentage of oleaginous unsaturated fat. Also known as Kobe beef, the meat from wagyu cattle is known worldwide for its marbling characteristics, increased eating quality through a naturally enhanced flavor, tenderness and juiciness, and thus a high market value. Grocery stores in the United States will sell cuts of American wagyu for $40/lb to $150/lb (26/kg to 100/kg).
Because of the wagyu cattle's genetic predisposition and special diet including beer and sake,[1] wagyu yields a beef that contains a higher percentage of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids[2] than typical beef. The increased marbling also improves the ratio of monounsaturated fats to saturated fats.
Do you get to eat it while sitting on one of those hard, orange plastic benches and surrounded by families yelling at each other? I especially like it when a group of loud teens sit down next to you and proceed to throw food at each other. I guess when some people think "fine dining" they get a vision of this guy in their head:
David, You might have to fly to England to get one. I'm not sure it's being offered in the States, yet. You will have to leave your guns at home.
Yeah; I was afraid of that; not worth it.
I did a Google search and could not find a $200 burger but here's one in Madrid at sells for a mere $107.
When we butcher a steer for our use, I always shoot it in the field freom my second floor balcony. I use a Barrett 50 cal and a scope so I can take it out with a single shot to the head. We take em to the butcher and he always comments at how peaceful their expression is, that coupled with a rising look of surprise.
Since ours are fed on pasture with minimal grain finishing, we dont need to chase them all around the pasture with a stun gun. The lactic acid in their muscles would impart a funky flavor.
Ill sell you a burger (without all that other crap that MAme mentioned ) for about 6 bucks, blackened onions and all.
Just make sure u don 't serve your steers any $200.oo hamburgers
because that propagates mad cow disease, and we don t wanna get them mad.
