An image of a plate of two medium-sized pancakes, two strips of bacon and a small sausage patty surfaced online alongside claims that it cost $55. After going viral, the catering company responsible is fighting comparisons to the infamous Fyre Fest.
On Friday, Kanye West performed at an outdoor service at Bethany Church in Baton Rouge, La. While the service was free, a $55-a-plate “Brunchella” was held beforehand, Page Six reports.
