A Billionaire’s Restaurant Check

What? $18 for a bowl of soup? Outrageous!

(By my calculations, $35,425 of the check is alcohol, the tip is $7,328 and tax is $3,251. That means the food cost was only $1,217, or 2.5% of the entire bill.)

Buzzfeed has the scoop behind this:

This is an actual receipt from Nello’s in New York City. The customer was Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich, who had no problem dropping 47k on food and drinks for himself and five other people.
