Buyer Beware!

Look at the dessert prices again! And that's where the 'buyer beware' comes in.
There is not a dessert list on the menu and the gentleman, who I believe was the sushi chef, said that among they desserts they had were the fried Tempura cheesecake and the fried donuts, one coming with ice cream and we ordered ice cream for the other.
It is my fault for not asking the prices but by the same token why didn't he tell us the price of each item?
When a dessert price is equal to some main course prices and in a couple of items more than main course items on the menu maybe I wouldn't be the only one feeling ripped off. Plus the fact, in the case of the fried donuts, the dessert very overpriced.
A lunch for $27 each? Buyer beware.
Seriously, without being snarky, what is and would be your reaction? :O)
