Sometimes, regular lunch just won't do. Sometimes, you need to punch your body in the face with calories. If you're looking to eat something completely over-the-top this weekend, these five places can accommodate.

Lobster pho at Lime Bar
Kanye West your day by throwing caution — and money — to the wind with a $35 bowl of lobster pho at modern Irving Vietnamese restaurant Lime Bar. If you don't post this on Instagram, did you really even eat it?

Cookie dough at Dough Dough
Yesterday, Dough Dough finally opened, which means Dallas officially has an entire restaurant devoted to cookie dough. There are 10 different flavors, so obviously you're going to need enough cash to order 10 scoops of straight cookie dough.

Cheese Island at Ddong Ggo
It's a $25 mountain of cheese, fried chicken and fries at a restaurant with a name that translates to "butthole." Any other questions?

These doughnuts look as ridiculous as they taste.

Anything at Wow Donuts
This Plano doughnut shop takes doughnuts seriously with dozens of flavors like pineapple upside down cake, chocolate lava, Ferrero Rocher, Cinnamon Toast Crunch and maple coffee cake.
