[/media-credit]Sure, Wall Street caused the economic crisis of 2008 – and sure, you have never really recovered from that. Funny thing, they did. But those on Wall Street have yet to find the perfect way to rub your nose in it…until now….
A Denny’s has opened up in the Financial District of NYC and they are offering a $300 version of the Grand Slam.
The breakfast item is called the “Grand Cru Slam” (Grand Cru being French for overpaid assholes or something like that) comes with eggs, pancakes, sausage, bacon, and a bottle of 2004 Dom Perignon Premier Cru Champagne (oh, that is where the Cru comes from, fuck it…I like the overpaid asshole interpretation better). The New York Daily News reports:
“It’s not an astronomical price for Dom Perignon,” says Mike Capoferri, who was hired by Denny’s to create a “craft cocktail” menu at its first Manhattan location.
Yes, the FiDi version of “America’s diner” will also have specialty cocktails that start at $11. The bottle of the good stuff at Denny’s is a bargain compared to top restaurants in the area, which charge more than $400 for the bottle.
Oh what a relief, it is a bargain! For a minute I thought the Wall Street crowd who makes billions from of ripping off ordinary Americans were getting screwed over on the price of their breakfast champagne.
