 Amid a gruelling cost-of-living crisis in Britain, prime minister Rishi Sunak dined at a $15,000 (just shy of £11,800) Disneyland restaurant. Only hours after telling a downtrodden homeowner facing £2,800 mortgage payments to 'talk to your bank', Sunak and his family flew to California. The prime minister and his wife, Akshata Murty, own a £5,000,000 luxury penthouse apartment in Santa Monica, an hour's drive away from Disneyland. Touching ground in LAX on August 2, Sunak has since reportedly joined a Taylor Swift-themed Soul Cycle class and brought daughters Krishna, 12, and Anoushka, 10, to Disneyland. The 10-day vacation has now seen Sunak and his family dine at 21 Royal, a luxurious restaurant hidden behind a Pirates of the Caribbean attraction. Sunak, thought to be the richest person to ever hold the keys to Number 10, was photographed leaving 21 Royal on Sunday, walking down its staircase entrance. For a group of up to 12 people, the bill for dining at 21 Royal costs $15,000 (Picture: MEGA) Sunak and his family flew to the US for a 10-day vacation (Picture: MEGA) One food website called 21 Royal 'arguably the most expensive dinner experience' in the US (Picture: Disneyland Resort ) The experience costs $15,000, with the bill including a table for up to 12 people (about $1,250 a person), park-hopper admission (a one-day ticket costs $185), valet parking at Grand California Hotel & Spa, tax and tip for the five-hour seven-course meal.
