Umami founder Adam Fleischman created the "Money's No Object" burger, which is a more high-end version of the restaurant's truffle burger.
The MNO burger is made "with a hand ground and formed patty. Made from one single cow and dry-aged, the beef is extremely rare grass-fed Wagyu," according to the restaurant in a statement released Friday. "From there, Umami Burger tops the patty with Grade-A Hudson Valley foie gras, an onion marmalade and reduced 1977 Croft Vintage Port. As the final topping, Fleischman adds about a quarter-inch of freshly shaved Italian white truffles, in season now."
