Hoptail is a foodie and has done things like this in the past. She does not regret spending $600 saying: “For those of you with the disparaging comments about this endeavor not being worth it, or that I shouldn’t be spending my money on stuff like this if I’m not financially well-to-do. It’s my money, and this is what I like.”

She says she had gone to San Francisco for work and whenever she travels, she loves visiting restaurants. Although she isn’t well off being a college student, she is a foodie and loves new food experiences. Her passion as a foodie makes her save up money so that she can pay for food at the best restaurants in the country.
Hoptail took photographs of each and every item she relished at the Saison which is the costliest restaurant in San Francisco and the second most expensive in America. “Firstly, I don’t have Instagram, and secondly, if I’m going to spend that much on a meal, I want to be able to appreciate it later and share it with people who would find it interesting,” She said. Who wouldn’t want to remember and share the $600 meal eaten at a three Michelin star restaurant? For that price, she got a 22-course meal.
