Just got an email from Perry’s Steakhouse.
…
Not just caviar, but caviar from “small batch Sturgeon” (what the heck does that mean?) “ethically and sustainably farmed with an all-natural diet”.
But wait, there’s more:
…our innovative caviar service dish is kept at subzero temps…
…to maintain a perfect temperature for this and surrounded by ice (and sparklers) for a show-stopping and mouthwatering experience.
Any of you guys set of sparklers on the major holidays? You know what they smell like, right? Do you want your $2,646 per pound caviar smelling like burnt sparkler?
($175 for 30 grams, $75 for 10 grams. I think I did the math right. But you get chives, egg whites, toast points, egg yolks, and red onions with it.)
Don’t get me wrong, I like Perry’s. And I like caviar, and I have written in the past about the continuing caviar crisis. But this is just silly.
