22 bucks a pound for them

My nephew (his twin sister -- the one who went to NASCAR school, one of her friends, my sister-in-law, and my SIL's sister) just got home from a week in Rome.

My nephew said he thought the choices on one restaurant's ala carte menu seemed reasonable, so he ordered the beef fillet for [pretend I'm using the Euro symbol here]$12.something. THEN, after he'd already ordered, he said he figured out that the fine print said that the price quoted was "per 100 grams." He had a $70 steak! Plus the cost of the rest of the meal. (I didn't ask.) ;)
