Even my michelin clients are price conscious with their prime, wagyu, kobe, etc. they still are trying to suppress their food costs

If I'm going to a michelin restaurant and worried about price I shouldn't be eating there.  Don't charge $20 for a baked potato or side of broccoli if ya want to be cost conscious.

I am speaking more about the restaurants than consumers.

Michelin restaurants and fine dining food is overrated crap. I’ll take a $10 burger with fries over half portioned truffled whatever that tastes like sh!t.

Charge me $150/lb for Wagyu.  I’m good with that but a $20 baked potato better have gold leaf butter and sour cream churned right at the   Table.  I know what a potato costs.
