Reply to comment by FreshYoungBalkiB in Gordon Ramsay’s Fish & Chips soft-opened at The Wharf (FYI: Gordon Ramsay Hell's Kitchen, across the way from F&C at The Wharf, is expected to open Nov/Dec) by DaveLambert

u/FreshYoungBalkiB - well, the DC menu is up, and it looks like it's just fish, chicken, and shrimp for now.

NO sausage! And NO lobster! 😱

And the basic Fish & Chips combo that's $14.99 (add $3.49 for a soft drink) in Orlando and $17.99 (price includes a fountain drink) in Vegas is costing $16.99 (add $3.99 for a soft drink) in DC! But that's still cheaper than the $18.50 (add $3 for a soft drink) they charge in Cherokee, I guess.

Strange how the coastal cities of Washington DC and Orlando (and Cherokee, which is in a coastal state) end up costing you more for fish than does the desert city of extravagance, Las Vegas! And why no lobster in DC?!?!?

Expensive rent, high taxes, high labor costs, I guess.

I bet if they opened a branch in BFE North Dakota, they could sell the meals for $9.99.
