Yes, Ruth Chris was horrible.
Steak was not good. Can’t believe just how bad the place was.
As far as this :
I can tell you a friend blew $18,000 on a bottle of something or other wine that was vintage 1772 I believe.
Only thing that made that fun was drinking something that old and for its exclusivity.
Don’t be so sure.

The guy we bought it from is highly reputable.
My friend buys certain lots that are highly desirable.
This bottle came off some ship wreck and was discounted, as a thank you for his business.
He sells to collectors and restaurants, wines that are hard to come by as well specializing in verticals that are also not easy to acquire.
His word is highly trusted and he even got me an awesome deal on some Diamond Creek magnums I wanted.
Good article though.
