Grapefruit at Chateau Marmont

A friend recently posted on Facebook that she'd eaten brunch at Chateau Marmont. Out of curiosity I looked at their breakfast menu. Half a grapefruit is $5.00 and a glass of orange juice is $7.00.

I smugly calculated that by eating breakfast at home and not at Chateau Marmont, we save on the side orders alone, $24.00 per day or $8,760.00 per year. Probably even more considering my grapefruit at home is a greater value than the CM as it's often garnished with passion fruit - a twofer.

The Chateau Marmont menu is the first I've seen that states, "Please refrain from taking photographs or smoking".

  2. The prices are not that bad. I have seen twelve buck orange juice.
