$2,700 Sushi

The World's Most Expensive Sushi is Garnished in Gold

The world's most expensive sushi has been made by chef Angelito Araneta Jr, who is a Filipino chef. He has created some fancy looking sushi, all garnished with gold leaves. If the gold leaves weren't fabulous enough for your taste buds, maybe the diamonds on top of the leaves will do it for you.

The world's most expensive sushi is made with .20-carat "African diamonds and wrapped with a 24-karat gold leaf"--pretty spectacular, if you ask me.

This fabulously luxurious meal can be found in Manila all for the price of $2,750.
