Interesting, open s&p bowls are not common here but I have seen them a few times they are horrible and I have been charged for tap water, again not really a common practise. Most of the others are standard gripes.
I have visited parts of Florida fairly regularly since the early eighties and back then I found the service (is everthing ok? type) a little strange but still quite nice. I had never heard of it before as we were very stuffy and pompous over here back then. But in the last 20 years we have adopted it proudly and you hardly ever leave a restaurant now without hearing "Have a nice day" its still nice but only if they mean it. |
