WE ALREADY KNOW about the nosebleed prices for just getting into this week’s World Economic Forum – better known as Davos.

A ticket alone for the globe’s most exclusive schmoozefest, where the 2,500 invite-only guests include world leaders and billionaires, could set you back up to $30,000 (€26,000).

But that’s just the start. What about the costs of those day-to-day necessities, like a sandwich or, say, a pair of Will I Am-style wraparound sunglasses?

Well, TheJournal.ie has the answer to one of those two, important questions – courtesy of Matthew Miller, the managing editor of business news service Bloomberg.

Miller was among the 200-strong press contingent in the Swiss resort town for the event, where he tweeted this club sandwich teaser from the 5-star Belvedere.

Look, it comes with three pieces of bread and even a mouthful of coleslaw on the side. At least Miller didn’t leave his 5,000-odd followers waiting too long.

Half a c-note, or nearly €43 in our money. We hope it was good.
