The folks at RocketNews24 reviewed Domino's new "luxury" pizza in Japan. Topped with Kobe beef, onions, potatoes, cheese and steak sauce, one pizza will run customers 5,800 yen, or about $66 U.S. The reviewers' verdict?
"The beef here really is sublime! From the first bite, the pure tastiness of the ingredients sets off a chain reaction inside the cerebral cavity. Before you know it, you find yourself entering into a state of pizza ecstasy.”
Ultimately, potential customers will have to decide whether they think "pizza ecstasy" is worth 66 dollars a pop.

For a luxury pizza, assuming it's ordinary pizza sized, that doesn't sound too over-the-top pricewise. A pizza's not intended to be single serving. So if you gave everyone a slice, it'd $5.50 a slice. Not quite as cheap as typical by the slice pizza, but not just crazy. And if you ate it as a meal split between two people, both would get six slices (and even by American standards, that's a decent amount of pizza), that's 33 bucks a person. Not cheap like most pizza is, but still in the range you'd expect for a something like a steak in a nice restaurant. In the scheme of restaurant dinner prices, not a bargain, but not a one-percenters only kind of evening out. I'd give it a go.
