A grand night of dining at the popular Nusr-Et Steakhouse in Abu Dhabi cost an unspecified group of diners a mouth-watering Dh615,065.
The bill was posted by the restaurant on the verified Instagram account of its owner, chef Nusret Gökçe, with the caption “Quality never expensive”.
The most expensive item on the bill is an order of five bottles of Petrus, which has come up to Dh325,000. Another order of two bottles of Petrus 2009 is worth Dh200,000. The VAT of this bill alone is in excess of Dh29,000. According to the image, the bill was racked up at the outlet in the Galleria on Al Maryah Island in Abu Dhabi.
Comments on the post range between disbelief and humorous quips. “And here I am complaining about my $200 Wagyu,” wrote entrepreneur Manny Khoshbin with a laughing emoji.
