- swaggadocio, on 08/20/2008, -3/+172Exactly. It just looks to be an assortment of very expensive ingredients thrown together only because they cost a lot rather than them complementing each other, ergo it probably tastes like *****.
- BuffalOBisoN, on 10/12/2007, -4/+124I don't even consider this a pizza.
- JCSaint, on 10/12/2007, -13/+86This is a sin against the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
- ThinkBox, on 10/12/2007, -2/+69Does the pizza have blu-ray?
- dominasian, on 10/12/2007, -2/+64i say the money would be much better spent making someone be your bitch for a day, a sbarro's pizza, and a twelve pack
- captainwtf, on 10/12/2007, -1/+46As a Chef, you'd truly have to be a fool to purchase this pizza for a grand. From looking at the picture, the two most expensive items on that pizza is clearly the caviar (from the looks of the pizza, I'd say there's about $100 worth on there), and the lobster ($30 bucks worth at max). Ripoff.
- TheRingmaster, on 10/12/2007, -3/+41Its not even cooked!. I would way rather eat $1000 of normal, good pizza than one of these abominations. I'm sure somebody could come up with a better superluxury pizza than this for $1000.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+28In New York we also have an IceCream Sundae for $1000 that is covered with just enough gold that you won't die when it is injested.
Kids this is why we don't do crack. - FalseProphecy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+26And then another dollar for the glass of tap water.
- EvilFerret, on 10/12/2007, -0/+25I'll wait for the price to drop to $500 before I buy one. For $1000 I would need it to be delivered by Spiderman, he better not forget the ***** garlic sauce.
- KatieBee, on 10/12/2007, -2/+25Y U C K !
- fegul, on 10/12/2007, -1/+23***** that, I'm calling Dominos. At least they deliver.
- chrisk9, on 10/12/2007, -1/+23If you can afford to buy a $1000 pizza then I don't think you're going to be worried about a hundred or two for tip.
What a waste. - tdowling, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2418%? Uh-uh, no way. I can calculate 15% in my head in a few seconds, but I'll be damned if I'm going to waste time trying to figure out percentages that aren't multiples of 5.
- captainwtf, on 10/12/2007, -1/+22Sorry, made a mistake. I didn't know it was Petrossian caviar.

For a tin of their most expensive caviar it would run you $1340.00 and their lowest grade caviar is $230.00. Still, it's a ripoff. Besides, who the hell would want caviar and creme fresh on a ***** pizza? Cheese with the works please. - uselessexpert, on 10/12/2007, -3/+22Yeah...Nino...stick it up your ass!
- jamlarso, on 10/12/2007, -1/+16it dosnt even have truffles or swan farts on it? rip...
- whiledo, on 03/25/2009, -0/+14@FiP0
""crême fraiche" (fyi)"
crème fraîche (fyi) - Bradl3y, on 10/12/2007, -3/+17Percentages do not inflate. 15% is still standard for me. 18% would be if they were better than usual. ***** pretty soon the "standard" will be the customer paying the waitress entirely, and the restauraunt paying them nothing. When tipping becomes mandatory it voids the initial incentive to earn tips.
- 4UIDigg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+13eight ounces of four different kinds of Petrossian caviar, four ounces of thinly sliced Maine lobster tail, salmon roe, and a little bit of spice with wasabi ... and just a dash of cocaine to keep the patrons coming back for more
- itsme92, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15you need a girlfriend, badly
- TheWorm, on 10/12/2007, -3/+15Anyone who would order this is an egocentric ***** who's only eating it for the sake of status. Get some regular new york pizza and spread your fortune with those who need it more than you need a caviar pizza. I can guarantee it will taste as good, and you will feel better afterward.
- DurkaMcDurk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11I'd rather it be delivered by the Ninja Turtles.
- kurtwinter, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11$1000 would buy dinner for two at the most expensive restaurants in NYC. Why the f anyone would pay $1000 for a personal pan pizza is beyond me, unless it was made of solid gold. The owner of pizza joint in question says that "wall street types" would be the customers. News for you dumbass: rich people don't get rich by spending a grand for a pie.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+12If I ate a real pizza and threw it up, it would taste better than this.
- whiledo, on 03/25/2009, -2/+12@thetaoofbill
So then couldn't the chef who gets the $1000 spend it on charity? The chef is not a trash can. The money doesn't disappear after you pay your bill. - bgcharlie44, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10A couple months ago, some of the Westfield execs stopped by the very high-priced Italian restaurant that my friend's dad works at. They ended up spending over $40,000, mostly on 3 bottles of wine. They ended up tipping the staff $10,000. And this was all for lunch.
- weister42, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10No way in hell am I ever gonna spend $1000 on a pizza, I'm gonna save up to buy a set of those diamond rims that costs $2 million.
- juanotejano, on 10/12/2007, -4/+14I would tip the waiter a piece of the frickin pizza... nothing more and nothing less.
- mitrovarr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Nysul:
"15% is no longer the norm if you are a pretentious prick waiter. 15% is the norm for everyone else."
nestafett:
"I hope you keep that ***** attitude at restaurants, and I hope you like your meals with special sauces =)"
Congratulation, nestafett, you've proven Nysul right - you are in fact a pretentious prick and otherwise worthless human being. Nothing pisses me off more than waiters suggesting, even in jest, that they have the right to sabotage someone else's food for some perceived slight. If you don't want your auto mechanic slipping bleach into your gas tank or your surgeon leaving in some gauze because you didn't tip them (or get the amount right) don't act like that yourself. - natey3, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8I found the problem!! He's worked as a waiter for 7 years.
- benitojuarez, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9edit time ran out.
in regards to tipping 10% i will also tip whatever I feel is fair. If I pay $1000 dollars for a pizza, I am not going to give a waiter $150 for the 30 seconds it takes to take my order and the 30 seconds it takes for him/her to bring it from the kitchen to my table. - whiledo, on 03/25/2009, -1/+9@thetaoofbill
Wow. I was actually going to say "this isn't fundamentally different from buying an HDTV or a PS3" in my earlier post, but I figured you would say that also was an extravagance that would make you sick. But no, you really actually defend that kind of consumerism. In reality, there IS NO fundamental difference. Both are luxury items. You can move up the scale and find even more expensive meals that would make this look like peanuts. Lower down someone posts about a $40k with a $10k tip. Same with someone in the middle class buying a nice fancy car when something that cost $10k less would work just as well and last just as long.
Would someone buying a $1000 ring make you less unhappy, even though it doesn't even satisfy a bodily need? Because that's yet another luxury that goes on in quite a large number of households in the first world.
Personally, I'd much rather see the rich spending their money on SOMETHING, rather than just letting it pile up and stay in the family. They're already giving as much to charity as they would with or without $1000 pizzas. At least those pizzas are taking some more money out of their pockets and putting it back into the economy. - EmailAddress, on 10/12/2007, -3/+11"Will work for food"
- mitrovarr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8nestafett: "waiters dont have the right to make jokes?"
Not that one. How would you like it if computer technicians joked about putting the 'special' pictures on your hard drive and sending a anonymous call to the FBI, or cops joked about tossing some weed in your car when they stopped you? No. Normal people trust waiters with their food. Joking about messing with it violates that trust. - Nysul, on 10/12/2007, -2/+915% is no longer the norm if you are a pretentious prick waiter. 15% is the norm for everyone else.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9for a grand they better have naked chicks deliver it to my table, cut it into pieces and hand feed me. even then it'd have to be just Peperoni & Cheese...
hey.... I can dream..... - TheTaoOfBill, on 10/12/2007, -12/+19Meanwhile people are dieing of hunger and various treatable diseases. If you have 1000 dollars to waste on a Pizza you are a disgrace to humanity. If you feel like throwing away 1000 dollars do it on something that will actually benefit mankind.
This makes me sick that people would actually do this as opposed to donating to charity. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6I want to digg it down for it being a stupid idea.. but its not a stupid.. post? Aw man.. this is even worse than the time that racoon got in the copier.
- Sil369, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7It's worth more than what I make in a month.
- rholloway, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6@theworm
Ugh. I agree with you in principle, but you win The Most Cliched Post of the Year award with that one. - Dustyb, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6The $1 tap water is the real deal breaker.
- TheTaoOfBill, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7He stole that dudes pizza!
- venom8599, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6@krzysean
Personally I find it to be much too sweet. And in case anyone was wondering, apart from the gold flakes, it's just cinnamon schnapps. - d2leo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Prank calls anyone?
- Shuk, on 10/12/2007, -5/+11Even Bill Gates would say WTF!
- Vironex, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Oh my goodness. I think that would be the greatest thing ever.
- TriZz, on 10/12/2007, -5/+10Why are you digging "thetaoofbill" down?! Because his comment wasn't funny?
...so, does this mean that the digg-downers are the ones who would rather spend $1000 on one four-slice pizza with fish all over it rather than give to a good cause.
Man, I thought geeks were supposed to be smart.
***** everyone with a $1000 four-inch thick dildo that diggs him down. - kndonlee, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6That pizza better come with a french maid willing to blow.
- DeskFlyer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5I rather just have the cocaine.
