A high-end Japanese restaurant, Katsu, has just opened in the north California town of Los Gatos. First thing on the menu is a dish called the Decadence Staircase, including Russian Sevruga, Osetra, Golden Osetra caviar and premium Beluga caviar, descending along bamboo stairs.

It additionally consists of Pacific spiny lobster sashimi, Japanese Wagyu shabu shabu-- and just what much better way to top it all off than with 24 karat gold leaves?

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
