$350 PB&J on Menu at Upcoming West Loop Restaurant

The center of attention is the over-the-top $350 “Golden Goose” that has to be ordered at least a day in advance. It’s an entire loaf of toasted bread made with edible gold leaf and layered with Maison Dutriez Red Currant Jam; it’s the most expensive jelly in the world, de-seeded by hand with goose quills. The peanut butter is Adams All-Natural, and it’s affordable retailing for around $5 per jar. It’s then drizzled with Manuka Honey, an ingredient native to New Zealand. They’ll also offer PB&Js in loaf form — the sandwiches are reassembled inside a bag, presented to diners, then sliced open table side.

Goose quills?

If it doesn’t taste like childhood, is it really worth $350?

The peanut butter is a bit anti-climatic.

Reassembled?

Reassembled?

...yeah that is an odd word to find in a description of a $350 sandwich. For that much money you'd think they'd at least go to your house and make it. Maybe spruce up your kitchen while they were there.

Yeah and, does that imply that they assemble it, then disassemble it, then reassemble it? What else could it be?
