The dish is made with elegant ingredients and is garnished with an exquisite cheese sauce that drapes over the meat like a velvet cape. While spending $120 on a single sandwich might seem outrageous, this particular dish is worth the splurge. The cheesy sauce is actually a combination of a monray sauce, truffles and shredded cheese. The meat is a [wagyu beef](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/j-mac), which is both a New York strip and a rib eye steak combination. The entire sandwich is then topped with high-end truffles and foie gras. All of these mouth-watering ingredients co-mingle together atop a [crusty baguette bun](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supreme-stack-sandwich). The luxurious dish from Barclay Prime is recommended to be served alongside a cool glass of fresh bubbly champagne. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 16% | Activity: 68% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fine Dining:** Fine dining restaurants can expand their offerings to include high-end versions of classic fast food items such as sandwiches, burgers and pizzas. - **Fast Casual Dining:** Fast casual dining establishments can elevate their menus and offerings to include upscale and gourmet options that cater to discerning palates. - **Luxury Food Retail:** Luxury food retail stores can offer high-end versions of comfort food items, attracting customers willing to pay for premium ingredients and unique taste experiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Premium Cheesesteak Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/great-steak-premium-meal.md) - [Bourbon-Glazed Cheesesteak Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kentucky-bourbon-cheesesteak.md) - [Ingredient-Packed Cheesesteak Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mega-cheesesteak.md) - [Hybrid Cheesesteak Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corn-dog-cheesesteak.md) - [Extravagant New Year's Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/empire-steak-house-nyc.md) - [Seasonal BBQ Cheesesteak Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bbq-beef-cheesesteak-sandwich.md) - [Pizza-Inspired Cheesesteak Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pizza-cheesesteak.md) - [Meaty Cheesesteak-Inspired Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/philly-cheesesteak-burger.md) - [Cheesesteak Sandwich Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arbys-2.md)
