And they won't accept what you want to pay. They will demand what they want. In sum, I don't mind paying for a good experience, but I do not appreciate such...

My sister and I were looking for a simple early evening meal tonight. We walked down from our hotel and found this square filled with many seafood restaurants.

They were very attentive with sincerity, unliked others asking me where I was from and speaking some foreign languages to entice my curiosity of their offerings (free alcoholic drink). Food was hot, wonderful and tasty; fresh seafood with fresh ingredients. Pasta was just right, with simple fresh tomato sauce and cheese....
