NFT: New Restaurant in Philly to offer $700 Gold Covered Burger

A new burger bar in Center City is set to offer what promises to be the most expensive cheeseburger on any menu in the City of Philadelphia -- maybe even the United States.

In something of a gastrointestinal sensation that only the most affluent could stomach, the new "Gold Standard Burger" at DBG -- a revamped Drury Beer Garden -- will cost a wallet-busting $700 a plate.


Quote:
the burger will include "[e]ight ounces of Japanese A5 ribeye wagyu, Wexford aged Irish Cheddar cheese, Italian Black Truffle, Italian Caviar, lobster meat flambéed with Louis XIII Cognac, Wildflour Bakery brioche bun topped with gold leaf and fries drizzled with 1500+MGO Manuka Honey."

The extravagance goes on as the burger, owners said, will be served with a 1-ounce pour of Louis XIII cognac, a prestigious cognac that reportedly retails for nearly $5,000 a bottle.

Maybe we would be at different parties. Most people I know enjoy things like the best restaurant in the country.

It's weird how some of my favorite "food towns" are home to my least favorite sports teams, like Philly, Boston, San Francisco, Baltimore, and Chicago.

Probably for the idiots on instragam or Darwin award hub ticktok. Would be a real shame if they get poisoned, huh?

In actuality I think gold is remarkable for its inertness and non-reactivity.

Really, hating on other places is so weird to me.

Let me come to your hometown and remark how shitty your street looks, how everyone stinks, and how no one would ever living there if they had a brain.

Philly is fine. I lived there and now live outside it. Is it NYC or Chicago? No. But it has a ton of history, some beautiful locations, some lovely cultural spots and some incredible people.

I'm sorry so many people on this board are so closed minded. Internet tough guys points, I guess.

I think the cheesesteak line was meant as a joke. Most major cities like Philadelphia have at least a couple of excellent restaurants.

If it was anyone but Denny making the dumb joke, fine. But the source matters.

Huh? City people coming to a lower populated area and talking down to the townspeople about how much it sucks?

Yeah, that never ever happens.

Not only do they vacation to these areas, they wind up moving here from Philly, NYC etc and bitch it's nothing like where they moved from. Sorry?

Philly isn't a major city. They only have 2 measly championships out of the last 40 years. I think you would have to do a little bit better than that.

*I'm talking about the BIG FOUR by the way, not soccer or competitive fly fishing, or any of that stupid shit
