Everything included at the 2024 Golden Globes sushi dinner, costing at least $300

Here’s what the likes of Cillian Murphy and Jennifer Lawrence enjoyed for dinner at the 2024 Golden Globe Awards.

How do you feed a room of Hollywood’s most talented and successful A-list stars? With some of the fanciest sushi on the market, apparently. Thanks to the work of a reporter on the inside, who shared a snap of the food on offer at the award show, the world has been granted a glance at how the other half lived at the 2024 Golden Globe Awards.

Golden Globes 2024 dinner menu explored in full

Oppenheimer was the big winner at last night’s 81st annual Golden Globe Awards, and the stars of Christopher Nolan’s three-hour epic were treated to a sushi dinner that cost a bomb.

Thanks to movie critic Kyle Buchanan, who was behind the scenes at the illustrious ceremony, we learned that attendees were presented with a menu curated by culinary icon Chef Nobo Matsuhisa.

Starting with a salmon tartare accompanied by caviar, Globe guests were presented with a neatly arranged seven-piece menu that would make even the most fair-weather of sushi-eaters drool. Alongside the salmon tartare were sides of yellowtail fish with jalapeno and a Sashimi salad with Matsuhisa dressing.

The main event of the meal was a three-piece Nigiri hattrick, consisting of Tai Nigiri Matsuhisa style and salmon and tuna Nigiri with Nikiri Soy. And, of course, the exclusive menu would not have been complete without the inclusion of a Nobu classic – black cod with Miso.

Golden Globes dinner would cost around $300 at Nobu

Based on the menus at the Los Angeles Nobu and Matsuhisa restaurants nearest to where the award show took place in Beverly Hills, we estimate that the 2024 Golden Globes Dinner was worth in excess of $300 per diner.

With the likes of the yellowtail jalapeno typically setting diners back by over $30 and the black cod pushing $50 – we reckon the meal would have cost at least $200 – and that’s before you factor in the champagne that diners were sipping on.

Screeds of expensive champagne bottles could be seen on display and propped up on A-list-filled tables at the Mo�t & Chandon sponsored event, suggesting at least $300 was spent on the drinking and dining experience of each attendee, at a conservative estimate.

Not every star received the luxury of a seat

Unfortunately, the extravagant dining experience was not offered to every guest at the Golden Globes. In fact, one winner appeared to miss out on the Nobu/Matsuhisa offering entirely.

Kieran Culkin, Roman Roy of Succession fame, and the winner of the coveted Best Actor in a TV Drama award for 2024, was reportedly made to stand at the bar.

According to an Instagram story uploaded by his wife, Jazz Charton, the pair did not have seats, and could be seen casting forlorn expressions as they consoled themselves with the fact that the extravagant affair was still “a night away from the kids”.

Let’s hope that next year Culkin can put some of that Waystar Royco money toward a top-tier seat at the 2025 Golden Globes.
