We have a restaurant not too far away from us. They have a fixed price
menu, US$250:

But their 105 page wine list is just beyond belief. There are several
bottles over US$10,000!
Of course, now that I think about it, the US$250 for the meal includes
service, so maybe wine prices do also.
But still, even if someone thinks US$15 is trivial, what about US$1500?
