Ummm NO!

As P.T. Barnum so famously said, "There's a sucker born every minute!"

I don't think there is ANY food I would pay $200 a plate for. Definitely not for a handful of chips.

They're sprinkled with fairy dust, but don't come w/any Tinker Bells, it seems.

How tempting is it to trip the server?

Very Late Edit: I don't know what lead me to say that. Certainly not to cause pain. More to see the looks on people's faces, when the plate hit the floor. You figure the '5-second rule' would come into play?
