When you think of an expensive meal, you probably envision yourself at one of the
most expensive restaurants in the world, not eating take-out. That isn't to say that there is anything wrong with take-out, just that it is intended to be for convenience and is usually associated with casual affairs. Kayne West has just redefined take-out by ordering what must be one of the
most expensive take-out meals ever ordered (excluding large parties, where "take-out" becomes "catering"). He ordered dinner from a restaurant called British Raj, an Indian restaurant outside Cardiff, Wales, for himself and seven friends. Normally, such a meal would cost $17.50, but West is having it cooked, cooled, packed and shipped -- along with the chef who prepared the food -- to New York for a Wednesday meal.
