What's the most you've spent/would spend on a single item of food or drink?

...I know what a Grasshopper is

But yeah 50 Best Bars tends to be very weird in their selections, and it seems like it is highly influenced by money/connections from I've heard (just like everything else, I guess).

I remember their top pick for SF was ABV, a bar that is just "fine". They also had the Camparino in Milan on a recent list, and that bar is pretty mediocre despite the fact that I really enjoy Campari.
