Thanks for the information.

I am curious about the cost of the meal - was it because they had to fly in a corporate jet and hire a motorcar to eat at this Carl's Jr. or is that the sum that they paid for the burger itself?

The story came out last month. Here is background info:

Palms Casino Offers $6,000 Burger

(AHN) -- A midnight craving for a hamburger could cost $6,000 if you're staying at the Palms Casino. This pricey burger will now be offered as part of the hotel's room service and coffee shop menu.

The burgers will come from food chain Carl's Jr., which is a sister chain to Hardee's restaurant. Since the franchise is not available inside the hotel, the franchise owner said the hotel bell hop will drive to Carl's Jr. to fetch it when ordered.

Fortunately, anyone spending $6,000 on a burger is going to get more than a meat patty and two buns. The sandwich comes with a bottle of 24-year-old French Bordeaux. The burgers started selling on Tuesday.

The reason the burger is so expensove is you get a bottle of 24 year old French Bordeaux to go along with it. No wonder its so pricey!
