Splurges

If you like eating fine Italian food and drinking wine and cocktails for hours and hours and you have a few hundos lying around, Del Posto has a deal for you this New Year's Eve: an eight-course dinner at the bar with wine pairings, and you get to keep your seat all night and enjoy an open bar till 2 a.m. The whole shebang is $495 including tax and tip, and a few slots are still available. That's a lot of money, but just think about the experience there for a minute. [EaterWire]
