Speciality Restaurant Special Menu at $120/person?

[Oxo]

On another posting I questioned the price of $120/person for a meal on any RCI/Celebrity ship even during a Xmas/New Years cruise.

I asked what would be on that menu to cost so much from the normal $50 to $60.

Does anyone have an example of a $120 menu?

We have been to the Captain's Table and it didn't cost that much. 

TIA

STAY SAFE AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Lobster and steak and champagne is what they did for $90/person at Chops on a NYE cruise in 2019.

Every restaurant I know costs more on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve.

Fully understand that. I even mentioned that in my posting.

MY posting was that I was looking for a copy of a menu from RCI.

The menu doesn't really change.  As mentioned they throw in some cheap champagne, a lobster tail that you get for free in the MDR on formal night and maybe a special dessert.  It's not about providing a spectacular special meal its about grabbing cash because they can.

It is nothing but a big cash grab for a holiday cruise. Just like the inflated prices during the holiday season for the cruise itself. Think of it as a supply and demand process in action. More people will be looking for a special dinner on a holiday. There are more people on a holiday sailing. The number of available tables in a specialty restaurant is constant. The price will rise in a dynamic pricing model. There is little to no incentive to provide additional value for the increased price. Be happy for anything extra they might provide. How ever minimal it is.
