Kobe beef steak
Aragawa Tokyo's Aragawa is one of the city's most famous and expensive restaurants. A serving of steak costs $368, and the price reflects the origins of the meat. The beef, commonly called Kobe, comes from the Tajima-ushi breed of Wagyu cattle and is considered a delicacy. But big bucks alone won't get you in the door at this restaurant, as seating is reserved for exclusive clientele.
Mac 'n' cheese
Melisse Forget that boxed blue stuff.
If you've got money to burn, Melisse restaurant in Santa Monica, Calif., serves up a mac 'n' cheese that costs $95. The dish uses expensive white truffles, fresh tagliatelle and brown butter truffle froth. It's offered only during truffle season, from October through December. The confection boasts high quality ingredients including French Valrhona chocolate, fresh cream, pure Italian truffle oil and French Perigord truffle, and is crafted through an arduous process.
Richard Nouveau burger
TODAY Can a burger break the bank? Not if you're dining off the dollar menu.
But a couple of $175 Richard Nouveau burgers from the Wall Street Burger Shoppe in New York City might do the trick. This swanky sammy includes gold flakes, black truffles, seared foie gras and aged Gruyere cheese accompanying 10 ounces of Kobe beef.
La Madeline au Truffle
Knipschildt Chocolatier Two bucks might get you a chocolate bar at the drugstore, but you have to come with a lot more sugar for a taste of La Madeline au Truffle from Knipschildt Chocolatier in Norwalk, Conn.
The chocolate truffles go for $250 a pop about $2,600 for a pound.

The 12-inch Luxury Pizza
TODAY The 12-inch Luxury Pizza at Ninos Bellissima in New York City costs a whopping $1,000, which breaks down to $125 a slice. The restaurant needs 24 hours' notice to create the pie because it is topped with six types of caviar, which have to be specially ordered. In addition, the pizza includes lobster, creme fraiche and chives.
