NEW YORK - A Manhattan restaurant is offering a hamburger that costs $175 and is topped with gold.
It's made of Kobe (KOH'-bay) beef. It comes with black truffles, foie gras (fwah-GRAH') and Gruyere (groo-YEHR') cheese in addition to gold flakes.
Wall Street Burger Shoppe co-owner Heather Tierney thinks of it as "a work of art."
Tierney says the item attracts Wall Street types who down a few beers and then fork over $175 to show off to their friends.
