Heston Blumenthal has hiked the price of Christmas dinner at his Fat Duck restaurant to a whopping £425 per head.
The TV chef has increased the price from £395 last year.
But the posh menu doesn’t even include roast turkey and the trimmings or Christmas pud.
Customers also have to pay upfront for the cost-of-living-crisis-busting meal.
And diners can’t go over the height of the festive period because it stops on 23 December.
It is not on offer on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day or Boxing Day
Blumenthal, 57, is famed for wacky dishes like bacon and egg ice cream and snail porridge.
He has run the triple Michelin Star eatery in Bray, near Maidenhead, Berkshire since 1995
The posh menu consists of nine courses of minimalist food.
The first is called Christmas Tipples and is Nitro-Poached Aperitifs.
This is followed by Pine Tonic of Botanicals – Green Herbs and Pine, Smoked Cumin, Jerusalem Artichoke.
The next is called Decorating the Tree – and consists of Truffled Egg, Smoked Salmon and Buttered Toast – Chicken Liver Parfait and Plum.
Langoustine Cocktail comes next – served with Marie Rose, Tomato, and Vanilla.
The fifth is Roast Scallops and Almond – Chocolate, Kombu, and Pickled Lemon.
Then comes Twas The Night Before Christmas – a Short Rib of Beef, Lardo do Colonnata, Dried fruits, Gold Carrot, and Sherry.
King’s venison served with Beetroot, Chestnuts, Brussels sprouts, Black Truffle and Umbles is next.
Finished off with Cheese, Nuts and Port and Botrytis Cinerea.
The Fat Duck Christmas meals run from 29 November to 23 December.
A Fat Duck spokesperson said: “If you are looking to book a Christmas party or a festive get-together with family or friends, from private dining or exclusive hire.
“Our venues offer the perfect setting from an intimate celebration to a corporate event.
“Enjoy exceptional cuisine in a unique atmosphere, and let our team take care of everything.
“Whether you prefer a cosy ambience or a luxurious setting, we have the perfect option for you.”
The Fat Duck website states tickets cost up to £425.
It reads: “Book early to avoid disappointment. Payment in advance.”
Last week, Tom Kerridge was criticised for increasing the price of his cook-at-home Christmas dinner from £195 to £215.
