The Most Money I’ve Ever Spent on a Meal

Daily writing prompt
What’s the most money you’ve ever spent on a meal? Was it worth it?

The most money I’ve ever spent on a meal was around 200 US dollars, and it wasn’t just for me—it was for a group of 11 people, including my family and close friends. We had a lunch buffet at one of the most well-known restaurants in the Philippines, a place known not just for its food but for the experience it offers.

Was it worth it? Absolutely. That meal wasn’t just about the dishes on the table—it was about the rare opportunity to gather the people I love most. Since I work abroad, I only get to visit home once a year. So every moment shared with them becomes extra special, and that one meal became a celebration of time, love, and connection.

In the end, the value wasn’t in the price of the food, but in the laughter, the stories, and the joy of simply being together. To me, that made it priceless.
