Sigh.....
So just because someone doesn't speak the language, it's open season to rip
them off?
I've taken the care to learn the basics of language in many countries....but
when someone fires unfamilar words at you rapidly, you've got jet lag, and
it's been a long, over stimulated day (even if fun), it can be confusing. We
shouldn't expect that an establishment in the hospitality business should
TRY to be hospitable to customers?
I don't know anything about this restaurant, but I do understand why some
people get totally pissed off and avoid this news group.
