I was treated to this Japanese restaurant yesterday and it was pretty evident that the place was on the more upscale side. I was looking at the menu and my first reaction was how little portions that this one dish was in comparison to an entr\u00c3\u00a9e.<\/p>\n
Essentially, this one order simple had about 5 to 7 pieces of item on it such as these small pieces of fish (Sashimi) on it. Now the presentation of the item was really great I must say, but the fact that this order was $25 I couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t help but to think how crazy that was.<\/p>\n
Just as a reference, there was this salmon teriyaki meal that was ordered too and that was $15. Just in terms of the value and portion even with that comparison juts made the $25 order seem like you are paying mostly jut because someone tells you that it is worth a lot.<\/p>\n
I can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t help but to think this is one of those situations where the market makes the items artificially high to a certain extent too as well. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m all for paying for quality, but am usually iffy about things like this. Speaking for myself, I never really followed the notion of paying for a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153delicacy\u00e2\u20ac\u009d when it comes to food. Some people say it tastes better knowing that it is more expensive, for me I enjoy it better knowing if it is a great value.<\/p>\n
I had a good time still though and was grateful. Almost wish that they didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t feel the need to spend too much though. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
