Expensive Restaurents

Italy Eagle Ski Club, Switzerland

Although the food at this mountaintop restaurant is not so expensive, you have to be a member to dine here, and the membership costs a whopping $50,000. If you make it through the strict selection procedures and three-year waiting list, Hollywood stars and the European royalty is likely to be occupying the neighboring tables.

In winter, they can snuggle by a log fire. This is followed by a delicious, local, seasonal Italian cuisine, which costs $426 per person. The restaurant takes just two people at a time and all the attention will be directed to you. W hen you are ready for your meal, the lights go down, the atmosphere takes on a magical quality and you can summon the waiter by tinkling a silver bell.
