A rare breed turkey wrapped in 50-carat gold leaf, a bottle of champagne that predates World War I and the world’s most expensive fish eggs are part of a meal that’s being described as the most expensive Christmas dinner in the world.

For £125,000 (€155,000), London chef Ben Spalding, currently head chef at John Salt, will prepare a Christmas dinner for four made up of some of the rarest and most expensive ingredients in the world.

Before tucking into their gilded meal, diners will clink to the holidays with an aperitif of Piper-Heidsieck Champagne 1907 valued at £37,000 in diamond-studded flutes.

The four-course meal opens with bird’s nest and Almas caviar, prepared with a 150-year-old balsamic vinegar, and Pata Negra Ibérico jamón.

Following that, diners will sample the world’s most expensive melon from China, the Yubari King, served with whole white truffle and saffron.

But the showpiece of the meal is the Dodine of rare breed turkey with Wagyu beef fillet and heart, wrapped in no less than 50-carat gold leaf and sprinkled with Akbari Pistachios – which alone cost £5,000 (€6,200).

The world’s most expensive coffee bean, the Kopi Luwak make up the dessert course which is served with Densuke watermelon, a seedless fruit grown on the island of Hokkaido, Japan which produces only 10,000 melons a year, all of which is served off a gold, Ugandan vanilla plate.

Meanwhile, Spalding will be donating 80 percent of his fee to the Cancer Research UK and Hospitality Action. The event is organized by VeryRirstTo.com, a service which offers exclusive, luxury products and experiences to its members.
