FleurBurger 5000 – the world’s most expensive burger

FleurBurger 5000Looking for the ultimate burger experience? Then go to Fleur de Lys at Las Vegas’ Mandalay Bay. The FleurBurger 5000 is the creation of renowned chef Hubert Keller; it’s a Kobe burger topped with foie gras and black truffles, served on a brioche truffle bun and garnished with a special sauce (containing yet more truffles). It comes with a bottle of Chateau Pétrus 1990 in Ichendorf Brunello stemware (exclusively imported from Italy). You get to keep the glassware but then, at $5000 a time, so you should.

    2. $5000 for a burger. What statement is someone making when they pay this much? If I don’t buy a burger and instead donate the money to charity, it would help. But if the potential buyer of one of these burgers donated the money to charity…?
