bear's pears

Meaning: Exceptionally good or unique.

Origin: It's a lesser known fact outside of zoology professionals that bears love pears. While most bears do not encounter pears in the wild, pears can make for a delightful snack in the conservatory. However, feeding bears pears is a relatively inefficient way to provide quality snacks and given the average price for pears, it would be a costly habit to begin with bears in zoos or other conservation habitats.

I heard the boss took Marc out to that fancy steak house because of his leadership on that last project. That's just the bear's pears.
