The rapper - who is dating Kim Kardashian - is a fan of tableware from the Hermes brand and refuses to consume food from much cheaper dining pieces.
Apparently his favourite plates cost around £700 each and he also has gold cutlery worth worth £4500 according to reports.
A source told The Sun: "Kanye is very particular about his plates and cutlery. Everything is the best quality."
His requirements are sure to impress girlfriend Kim who owns bags from the designer`s Birkin line as well as their belts.
She could also be seen picking out the dishes as a wedding gift in an episode of `Keeping Up With The Kardashians` which detailed the lead up to her short-lived marriage to Kris Humphries.
Kanye can certainly afford to live lavishly. His `Watch The Throne` tour with Jay-Z has made £30million despite not yet being completed.
Meanwhile the style icon has been giving style tips to his latest partner.
A source said: "Kanye has been having chats with Kim about her style.
"He thinks she should be more like him, edgy with her choices. He keeps saying she should `evolve` as a fashion icon.
