The Tower of Bauer offers one solution to soaring costs, but as he points out, no one is doing it, possibly because it's far too sensible: "I wonder why restaurants don't charge for bread. More than a year ago, I blogged about the cost of bread. At that time, Cyrus in Healdsburg spent $60,000, Boulevard reported spending $55,000, and Farallon's tab was $68,000 ... I've made a point of looking around restaurants to gauge bread consumption and in many cases, the bread languishes on the table." Making bread optional—or as suggested, a menu item—would seem to be a doable option, yes? [BauerBlog]
