Everest Named One of the 25 Most Expensive Restaurants in the US

While the upscale restaurant Everest (1 Financial Place) is technically just North of the Sloop, we still like to claim the restaurant. Anyway, not sure if this is something to be proud of, but I guess they're in good company (via Chicagoist):

The website Bundle.com analyzed spending data to determine the 25 most expensive restaurants in America. What has us and others talking is that five of Chicago's restaurants are in the top 10. Leading the charge, unsurprisingly, is Alinea, with an average check total of $736. that places Grant Achatz's restaurant at fourth on the list. Charlie Trotter's is right behind Alinea with an unholy average check of $666. Rounding out the top ten are Tru and Les Nomades ($558 each) and Everest ($546).
