Fancy Food

This past month the city hosts this event called summerlicious which allows regular people to taste the regular favorites of the rich and fabulous at a discounted price. It isn't a bad idea at all, I mean it isn't not everyday we can have a three course lunch of salmon or lobster for $15-$20 or dinner for $35. My only question after enjoying a tasty meal is what is this summerilicious really doing for the people?

I mean are we suppose to feel like the rich for a day? Is it there to help us learn random new languages as all the menu items are in a mixture of languages (its not like the chicken will taste any better if its called poulet nor will I be willing to pitch out more money because its stated in French)? Is it supposed to teach us that rich people enjoy more rich but less filling meals?

All I know is that every time I leave one of the fancy restaurants I think to myself....geez I think that a mcdeal would have been more filling. Or that a less fancy restaurant would have left me and my wallet more satisfied. I guess my husband will be happy that I don't enjoy the fancy things in life...
