The best burger in my town is $15 from an upscale sushi place.</text><parent_chain><item><author>mikestew</author><text>&lt;i&gt;2. Many very high end restaurants have great lunch deals, which can really cut the price to try them.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;p&gt;That was one of the greater discoveries I&amp;#x27;ve made about expensive restaurants. My wife and I had previously spent over $400 on an anniversary dinner at the Metropolitan Grill in Seattle. We&amp;#x27;re &amp;quot;common as muck&amp;quot;, too; just a couple of country hicks from Indiana. It was nice, glad we went, wouldn&amp;#x27;t likely spend that kind of money on a meal again.&lt;p&gt;Then I started a job literally across the street in the Exchange building. Boss wants to go the &amp;quot;the Met&amp;quot; for lunch. On my salary?!?! That&amp;#x27;s when I found out that for $12, one can get one the better burgers one will ever eat. I recommend that steak salad, too.&lt;p&gt;* Note: all prices from like ten years ago.</text></item><item><author>showerst</author><text>This is cool! As someone who&amp;#x27;s into fine dining, a few thoughts&amp;#x2F;tips for people starting out:&lt;p&gt;1.

Lots more crazy flavors, presentation, exotic ingredients, etc. It&amp;#x27;s not that it has to be &amp;#x27;better&amp;#x27; than the best $12 bbq joint you&amp;#x27;ve ever been to, just different.&lt;p&gt;2.

Yeah it’s destroyed, but stunning beaches, resorts, golf courses, restaurants, etc for a fraction of the price.&lt;p&gt;Best golf course and lunch I’ve ever had were at the royal isabela in PR. Absolute ghost town, but $90 all in. Stunning place.</text><parent_chain><item><author>mikestew</author><text>&lt;i&gt;2.
