Dinner for two, with tax and tip at a fancy pants place in a big city (sans alcohol) is generally going to be $300-400, depending on just how fancy the pants are. I would not know exact totals, nor how many times I have done this. But I don't regret a single one.

Were you paying or the person you were with?

What if the meal was a comp - after a long night of gambling? Would the play go into the cost of the meal?

Honeymoon Surfah dropped almost $200 on a steak dinner at Gotham's in Vancouver BC. And then he threw it up.
