  The cost of a meal goes up due to the location of the restaurant as well as the way the meal is presented. Sublimotion, a new restaurant at the Hard Rock Hotel in the bustling Playa d’en Bossa in Ibiza, is serving the most expensive meal.  They are not positioning it as a simple meal but a “gastro sensory adventure” which cannot be matched by any other restaurant in a hurry. It is the experience they promise which has attracted a long list of high profile customers even at an eye-watering £1,210 a head. All manner of un-named celebrities, Russian oligarchs and multi-millionaires have booked up the restaurant for the entire season. On the outside it is a non-descript, all-white building.

Anything associated with Nicolas Cage, the Hollywood star automatically gains in value. But when the item in question has an exciting history of its own it can become invaluable and then sky is the limit. Nicolas Cage is in the habit of making investment that can be called eccentric.  He had purchased luxury dinosaur bones, a pyramid tomb and a Superman comic book. Cage had bought the comic book in 1997 for $150,000. The price which looked excessive at the time has finally turned out to be a wise investment. The comic book is scheduled to go under hammer at an upcoming auction and if estimates are anything to go by it is headed to create the new record of the most expensive comic. One of the reasons for its high valuation is its long suspenseful history. In the year 2000 the comic was stolen from the California home of Nicolas Cage.
