Heston Blumenthal has hiked the price of Christmas dinner at the Fat Duck to a whopping £450 per head.
The TV chef has increased it by £25 a person from £425 last year.
The 58-year-old, said to be worth £55million, had whacked up the price then, too.

It was £395 for each diner in 2022 meaning it has gone up £55 in just two years.
Diners who want to enjoy the festive meal at the triple Michelin Star eatery in Bray, near Maidenhead, Berkshire, will need to pay upfront, too.
There is NO roast turkey on offer either.
And customers can’t go there on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day or Boxing Day.
It is also not available on Mondays or Tuesdays either.

The Christmas Experience at the posh restaurant, which Heston has run since 1995, only runs on Wednesdays to Sundays, from November 27 to December 22.
But the meal does come with TEN courses of his trademark minimalist food.
It starts with Christmas Tipples — made up of Nitro-Poached Aperitifs, Snowball, Bucks Fizz and Bristol Cream.
