One of the meals was asked without salt because of heart condition. A lot of it. It came with salt. One of us didn’t eat anything but fried potates and salad. And it was a simply grilled swordfish..In the meantime, the waiter it was at the door chatting during plus than 30 minutes…forgetting absolutely to work. At the moment of payment, they’ve discounted us the salted one. It...
