The humble burger, crafted and cooked to a high standard, can be a thing of beauty; but can a pimped-up patty ever justify a price of $2,300?
That's exactly how much the world's most expensive burger - approved by Guinness World Records - will cost you.
French lettuce, Iberian ham, and a specially-concocted sauce made with 35 lobsters, Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee, Madagascan vanilla, saffron and Japanese soy are also added to the mix.
And it's all stuffed in a brioche bun made with saffron and covered in gold leaf.
The burger was created by Chef Diego Buik, of the South of Houston restaurant, in The Hague, Netherlands.
A Netherlands native, Diego developed a passion for hamburgers during his two-year stint working at SoHo House, London, reports Luxurylaunches.com.
In 2015, he won the prize for Rotterdam’s best patty and bun creation, after his return to the city where he created and designed his own burgers.
To mark International Burger Day on May 28, he set out to create the world's most expensive burger - and did just that.
