“California Grill will host an evening of elegance!
$550 per person”
I certainly hope that’s a typo – $550 per person?! I can’t think of any NYE dinner that would be worth that.
As far as I know, that’s not a typo! Crazy, eh?
It’s not a typo and they mostly pay for the view.
Does it exists vip passes to the parks on new years eve? Thank u!!
