Even if I had billions, I'd feel silly spending that much for a sandwich. I'd do it once, then go get a cheap one to see if I can taste the difference.

Care to explain? If they are importing the cattle from Japan that have undergone their specific cattle raising process, why is it not wagyu?

i misread and thought it was cattle brought and raised here, which is usually the case.

STILL FLEXING ON WAGYUMAFIA.


if you're into food on insta, wagyumafia is the most fun account.

Wagyumafia's sando shop has lower end options that taste great too.

The whole idea of super expensive foods has always been ridiculous to me.

I had a crisp sandwich yesterday and it was bloomin' delicious.

Damn a lot of you guys are kind of downers, if I had the money I'd try it once for sure.

Of course you can get other cheaper and delicious foods, that's not really the point.

I would at least try the Washugyu one.
Always wanted to try a wagyu steak after seeing the one from Shima Steak, which does not have breading on the meat though:

Lazy drive by trolling.

A. Most gamers don't actually buy these LE's, hell browse just about any OT for a game and it's full of people saying "I'll wait for a sale."

B. As a proposition of value between the compasion: a single meal vs. 10-100hrs of entertainment.

C. Thw value of a sandwich vs other sandwiches. $185 is exponentially more than people spend on a single meal.


With that said, I've been to Kobe Japan and had myself authentic Kobe beef and am not saying its wrong to spend $185 on this sandwich, just saying have some perspective. And FYI Kobe beef is worth trying and I'm not even a huge meat eater.

Wagyu with that punny bread? No thanks, it would ruin the beef.

Man I'd rather just pay for the trip to Japan than eat this in NY. At least then I could go see anime ladies on pillows in Japan.

$200 for a steak sandwich?!

Anyone who spends that on a small bit of beef and two slices of bread and thinks that's ok is deranged.

Would not afford it atm, but I'd put it on my bucket list.

That's a hella good looking sandwich bread, though.

I would feel insulted if someone tried me to feed me a premium quality steak, but not before frying it and sticking it between 2 pieces of bread.
I traveled all the way to Kobe, Japan, to eat their beef and it was worth it.
Indeed it was. Kobe beef was amazing.
If you go to Kobe, at a middle of the road restaurant, it's usually about $85 for roughly 4oz, so you're not too far off, but yeah...expensive. XD
I remember paying about 50$ for a bit more than 5oz a few years back. It was magical.

Waygu hype is so fucking silly, I guess this type of shit is sort of a conclusion of that stupidity.
Don't get me wrong, you can phenomenal beef from Japan or from Japanese cow breeds, but I donno, I've been to Japan and I've been to Texas, and I find the notion that the former is somehow a better beef producing place to be almost farcical.

As for this restaurant, well, the point is to be expensive, I will bet you that you can make a sandwich that most people will find indistinguishable for a way cheaper price, but I ain't nobody opening a thread or writing an article on bloomberg for a really really good $20 premium steak sandwich.
