I’ll say this upfront, fancy restaurants can be worth it. The plating, the flavor combinations, the whole experience of someone clearly caring about every detail on the plate, that’s real, and I can appreciate it.

But there’s also a very specific feeling that hits somewhere between the appetizer and getting the check, when you realize that you basically paid $50 for each bite of food you took, and then find yourself thinking about what to get on the way home.

Here are the best food memes that roast fine dining exactly as much as it deserves, even from someone who still keeps making the reservation.
