To be fair, isn’t that really only marginally more expensive than standard run of the mill champagne in Britain.

That reminds me, is it now okay to eat french fries and french toast since Sarkozy called Ozero an alien lunatic?

Brings to mind this thread from last November ($52K on lunch at Nello's in New York). I wonder if it's the same guy.

Dude’ll spend $90K on a night at the bar, yet wears a $40 Wal-Mart plastic watch. I thought these Russian tycoons wore Rolex Oysters on each wrist.
