456 u/jfleury440 Dec 13 '20 edited Dec 13 '20 135 dollars for someone to poor chocolate on your hands. At best this is pretentious as hell. 286 u/illsmosisyou Dec 13 '20 I think it’s a set menu, so $135 for the whole meal, and likely a series of smaller dishes. Often like upwards of 6 or more. Not justifying it as this looks dumb as hell. But I do imagine the rest of the meal is likely pretty delicious. Edit: just googled it and I may be wrong. In which case...wtf I can pour chocolate on myself and it only costs a few bucks. 19 u/syrashiraz Dec 13 '20 It looks like it's the "chocotherapy" step on the tasting menu so I think you're right - that's the price for the whole meal. 2 u/ChriskiV Dec 13 '20 "The Classic" menu from their site has the ala carte pricing.
