Soup's Up

Why, just why?


A Chinese restaurant in London's exclusive Mayfair district has gained notoriety for selling soup that costs $263 a bowl.

The soup, called 'Buddha Jumps Over the Wall' contains shark's fin, abalone, Japanese mushrooms, sea cucumber, dried scallops, chicken, ham, pork, ginseng and a sprinkling of gold leaf.

The restaurant says it sells about two bowls every month.
