A New York restaurateur has cooked up the most world's most extravagant pizza -- a $1,000 pizza topped with six sorts of caviar and fresh lobster.


It then goes on to say how it's $125 a slice!

I dunno...if I had $1000 I probably wouldn't spend it on one pizza.

Seems like it tastes horrible. If you're going to pay $125 for a slice of pizza, it had better damn well be the best pizza known to man.

Agreed. It's a gimmick, and a bad one at that.

I think it's wasteful, but hey. If you have one grand to blow on a pizza covered in fish eggs, be my guest. You earned it, you spend it.


Stupidly.

I don't understand how these things are rated. Can anyone just price their pizza and be in with a chance of having the most expensive pizza, or does it have to pass a certain criteria etc. Same with other "most expensive" foods.

I think it's because the ingredients are really expensive. If not, any shlub with a pizza parlor could prize their pepperoni at 2 grand and beat this guy out in the records.

It doesn't sound like it would taste very good to me, either. I'll go for a double cheese mushroom for $1.25 per slice anyday. <3

That amuses me :P

But really. This is just stupid. And not on the part of the restaurant, on the part of the people who'd buy it.

That's not pizza, that's a disaster! The fact that he sold one just encourages this sort of behaviour. =/

I'd only pay that much if it were Chicago-style with sausage, mushroom, onions, and green peppers. And even then it would have to be insanely good. :D
