Long story short, I'm getting a promotion where I'll be making way more money than I ever have. What are some bougie, luxurious foods that are actually worth trying? I've never tasted caviar, is it any good?

Salmon caviar is pretty tasty and honestly quite affordable, especially compared with the more expensive varieties. Eat it with neutral/salty crackers and creme fraiche.There are other sorts of caviar that are a lot smaller and the smaller size really makes it less enjoyable for me because of the texture. The salmon ones are nice plump pearls.
only things I'd waste money on if I were rich is expensive alcohol, beer, whiskey, wine, just to feel how big of a scam it is.
>>22044456With enough money you can try everything
>>22044477I'll add that once you open it, it doesn't last too long and it's best enjoyed in small amounts at a time because of the richness and saltiness, so even if you can easily afford a larger container I wouldn't recommend it. If you want to get more then get them in separate smaller portions so that you open less at a time.
>>22044469Celebrating doesn't mean he's going to maintain a significantly different life style.
>>22044456Non-factory farmed meats, dairy, and eggs are absolutely worth the prices. Most seafood restaurants that name where their meat comes from are legit, IDK about worth the price at all of them though. Gimmickey stuff like flaming dishes or pouring cheese on things are probably not worth the bougie price that they are.To answer your question about caviar, I personally really enjoy it. It's salty and fishy, and the texture is very interesting and enjoyableIf you've ever had the little orange or green fish eggs at a sushi place and enjoyed them you will likely enjoy real caviar.

>>22044456>What are some bougie, luxurious foods that are actually worth trying?mac and cheese where there's an actual sauce packet and not a powder packet (feels good man)
>>22044456>What are some bougie, luxurious foods that are actually worth trying?Beef.
>>22044456I'm not a fan of caviar, i unironically prefer regular salmon roe. Foie gras is pretty nice. Especially with a teeny bit of jam.

>>22044456It all comes down to product knowledge and seasonality.-brown shrimp farmed on horseback September-December-hand-dived scallops from Norway-Skrei - migratory cod from Norway, February-March-Anchovies from the Cantabrian coast (Spain) April-June-Milk lamb from the Pyrenees and Dolomites - March-Milk veal from the Corrèze in France - April-May-Heart sweetbreads, of veal, April-May-Wild pepper from India-Black Kampot pepper from Cambodia-White pepper from Penja, Cameroon-Wild chocolate from Colombia to Mexico-Oysters from Ireland October-December-Mangalica pig from Hungary - November-Grouse from Scotland October-December-San Marzano and Piennolo tomatoes, mount Vesuvius, Italy July-October-Artichokes: the Venetian lagoon in Spring, after a period of frost-Asparagus: late Spring, grown near beaches-Beef: old animals, raised free range. Guernsey, Jersey, Scottish isles, remote areas of Spain (especially basque country)-Caviar: Aquitaine in France, Belgium, Po-delta in Italy.-Champagne: independent producers, start at 100$/€ a bottle for a good one. If you just want to know why Champagne really is good, 50 per bottle.-Same goes for Bourgogne wines.-Cauliflower, May, grown in loam soil.-Foie gras needs to be freshly made. Don't buy it in a jar, it's a waste of money.-Potatoes need to be grown in clay. For purée you're best in September, for fries that's March-April (old potatoes).-Milk peaks in May in temperate zones, July-August for mountains. You get better cheese with better milk. Different cow breeds give different milk: Holstein cows give lots of poor quality milk, so poor quality cheese. 99.9% of cheese is from Holstein cows. Every product has its peak location, peak window and peak circumstances for production and ageing. It's never scaleable, so you're always looking for small producers and independent shops.

>>22044477This guy gets it. Excellent with smoked salmon on top of the cream and crackers.Generally, everything the french or ruskis do with caviar is great
High quality meat cuts ate always worth the price (think premium, not imported overpriced plastic wrapped foreign garbage they peddle at some of these elite-branded pseudo butchers). Find local producers, visit farmers' markets, buy cuts you are familiar with and use your own judgement.
>>22044477Potato chips are better than crackers imo
>>22045005It’s more this. Less about the product and more about the quality and preparation of the product.
>>22044469>he thinks rich people got rich by saving up their money by penny pinchingyou are so naive it hurts LMAOrich people spend more on frivolous bullshit than you could dream of
>>22044456Read up on lifestyle creep. Also caviar kind of sucks.
>>22044456You should try a few of those Michelin places where they just give you a bunch of small plates of bougie shit.
>>22044475>he's concerned about losing thingsyou lose it all when you die, anon.>>22045453>rich people spend more on frivolous bullshit than you could dream ofbecause they're shit at money management.they don't even know the $20 bill method.
>>22045453Once you get to a certain point it's about snowballing asset management. But if you're not born already rich then yeah, you retard, step one is getting the snowball built and that's by saving.
