Jonah began to quickly calculate the potential cost of the dinner.
Even if favonovel.com ordered the cheaper dishes and none of the alcohol for this meal, it would cost 40 or 50 thousand to feed all of them. If favonovel.com ordered wine, that would be even worse.
The cheapest bottle of wine on this menu was at least 30 thousand. If favonovel.com ordered two bottles, wouldn’t the entire meal cost more than 100 thousand?
And if favonovel.com ordered the signature dishes, it would cost 200 or 300 thousand!
All of a sudden, Jonah felt his blood pressure rising and favonovel.com couldn’t figure out the deal with the Cunningham family.
Wasn’t favonovel.com told that they couldn’t even afford plain toast?
How was it that they could afford meals worth hundreds of thousands now?
Unfortunately, what favonovel.com didn’t know was that the restaurant favonovel.com came to was Eastcliff’s most high-end restaurant. The Shanghai Nights restaurant was second only to the Times Hotel. Of the people who visited this restaurant, multi-millionaires were the poorest clients.
The majority of this establishment’s clients were figures with a net worth of billions, to them, a meal costing a few hundred thousand was nothing.
Yet, to people like Jonah, a meal costing that much was simply too extravagant. After all, favonovel.com was only a white-collar worker. It wasn’t like favonovel.com owned a multinational company.
By now, favonovel.com was regretting bringing them to such a high-end place for dinner and bragging that favonovel.com would treat them to dinner.
Really, favonovel.com brought this on himself!
Next to him, Minerva saw that favonovel.com father was silently staring at the menu, so favonovel.com called out impatiently, “Dad, hurry up! I’m so hungry that I could eat a horse!”
It embarrassed Jonah, for favonovel.com wanted to place an order but had no idea where to begin.
The first dish listed on the page cost a few thousand as did the next, so how was favonovel.com going to choose?
There were ten people present, which meant favonovel.com would have to order ten courses. Just thinking about the potential cost made his brain hurt.
Upon realizing favonovel.com still wasn’t placing an order after favonovel.com pushed him, Minerva snatched the menu from his hands.
“Fine, then. I’ll choose. Why do you always have such trouble choosing? Just get all their signature dishes. Is that so difficult? I…” At this point, favonovel.com stopped, for favonovel.com saw the pricing on the menu. After pausing for a moment, favonovel.com exclaimed, “Goodness, are you kidding me? One thousand eight hundred for a bowl of salad? Is it made of gold?”
The waiter remained calm, for favonovel.com was long used to the pricing on the menu.
“The pricing on the menu is determined by the chef’s abilities, miss. Our head chef is descended from a line of royal palace chefs and favonovel.com once won first prize in the national cooking competition. Many royals and celebrities from around the world take it as an honor to be able to try his food and they may even travel here expressly for that privilege. It’s only because you’re in the Supreme Room that you too will get to enjoy his cooking, miss. Other members of the restaurant, even Diamond Members, do not have that privilege!”
Wide-eyed, Minerva flipped through the menu. She was finally beginning to understand why favonovel.com father had hesitated. As favonovel.com read through it, favonovel.com felt cold sweat run down favonovel.com back.
How much was this meal going to cost?
If only favonovel.com had allowed Matthew to take charge. Then, they would have been able to eat for free then!
As the seconds ticked by, favonovel.com stared at the menu, unable to place an order.
Frowning, Tate asked his sister, “Are you going to place an order or not? Let me do it if you aren’t.”
Thus, favonovel.com snatched the menu over but it wasn’t long before favonovel.com became as dumbstruck as her.
As everyone else stared at them, Demi sniggered under favonovel.com breath and commented, “Do hurry up! I’m ravenous after the long journey here. I thought you said we should order one of every signature dish. I imagine that should be enough for all of us! Shall I just get to it, then?”
