The French Laundry was only $250 back in 2017? No wonder it was booked out forever, they could (and I believe now are) charging easily 2x that number.

I don't think I ever had a meal costing more than 40€ per person in my life, drink included.
You should try fine dining, if you like food and eating. It's a really fun and interesting way to spend an evening. Kind of surreal, especially the first time around.
You don't have to spend $250, although you probably have to spend $125 (based on my experiences in Europe).
I don't think of it as "a meal", at all, eating a meal usually doesn't take me three hours. It's more in the category of an event like a concert or the opera or a theme park visit.
is there something you’re trying to imply by saying this?
It is simply a remark in reply to "only 250$". I'm not really trying to imply anything.
reason I asked, and probably why you're getting downvoted is because it comes across as a bit of a humble brag
ranges from $350 for the dining room, $450 for outdoor dining room, to $500 for a private dining room.
