>You'd be hard pressed to eat dinner for $1000USD in Canada. Luxury services and goods tend to be pretty uniform world-wide except in extreme. Cases. For instance in Vancouver, my wife I can go out to the best restaurant in town (Lumiere) for about $100CAN ($80US) each.

Did violinist played nearby your wife at that restaurant? They did me at Uzbekistan's restaurant. :)

Sorry, but I suspect about Canada's luxury restaurants quality than. Come Istanbul and eat at an expensive Bosphoporus restaurant. :)))

I'm at Istanbul from 17 years and couldn't eat at these restaurants.
