Eating at Disneyland's newest restaurant costs as much as your rent
"Gee, that was a cheap day at Disneyland," said nobody ever.
However, things could get considerably pricier with the 'land's new 21 Royal restaurant which costs...wait for it...$1,250 per person, according to Rob Report.
To be fair, this isn't just a plate of Mickey waffles and a hug from an adult dressed in a Pluto costume. The experience, which costs $15,000 total for twelve guests (sorry, you can't just reserve it for one or two) includes:
park admission
private escorts to the New Orleans Square location
an evening in the restaurant, which was Walt and Lillian Disney's personal two-bedroom apartment
Cocktail hour
Seven course "epicurean theater" fine dining experience, including luxuries like caviar and champagne
private balcony to enjoy park sights and potential fireworks.
It does sound like an incredibly cool way to blow over a thousand bucks per person.
Or, you know...you could pay your rent.
But rent doesn't come with the warm afterglow of eating fine dining while looking at all the peons lining up for the Pirates of the Caribbean ride.
