$175 Burger at Wall Street Burger Shoppe: Bah

Posted by Adam Kuban, May 20, 2008 at 9:15 AM

Not the $175 burger. But if this regular burger at Burger Shoppe is any indication, you don't want to throw down for the most expensive burger in New York.

From the New York Daily News today:

The Richard Nouveau - from the Wall Street Burger Shoppe, natch - comes topped with a blizzard of real gold flakes, plus 25 grams of black truffles, a seared slab of foie gras and an aged Gruyere typically reserved for a high-class cheese tray.

I guess the "Richard Nouveau" is the burger's name—in line with the menu-name conventions there. I don't know, though. Given the regular burger I had there in late March, I don't think I'd be ponying up $1.75 let alone $175. It's made with ten ounces of Kobe beef.
