How To Spend $1,000 On Dinner For Two In Chicago

By Ben Hart

“We had a great dinner at Alinea restaurant in Chicago. This dinner was not cheap – $950 for two (including the tip). It could easily have been $2,000 had we gone full hog on this. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience, thanks to a gift certificate we received from some dear friends. The food was delicious, the presentation incredible. It actually was worth the $1,000. You have to make a reservation two months in advance. We finally got in on a Thursday. It’s rated the #1 restaurant in North America by Gourmet and Restaurant magazines (#6 in the world).”
