Perhaps a standard $29.99 meal with salad, hamburger or turkey sandwich, soda, and cheesecake, or $59.99 for prime rib, or $99.99 for lobster and/or steak. Heck why not a $199.99 option provided by a local restaurant and delivered via postmates for a bottle of bubbly and wagyu steak? The on-board costs are the same, and if it's pre-order, there is little spoliage of the expensive lobster.I like this idea. I imagine most Amtrak chefs are capable of a fine meal given the time and space - some would enjoy the challenge if given the chance - but I doubt they could do justice to Wagyu beef and fresh lobster surf-and-turf in a Superliner at peak mealtime.
