I hope you didn't leave him a tip!


That reminded me of a place I once went to in Madrid, Spain. It was a very popular German restaurant with authentic cuisine. It was very crowded that night (Saturday). Apparently, Spaniards have never taken a cotton to the idea of queues or reservations, so their concept of waiting for a table is to find the table you want and stand around it until the patrons finish up! So here I am trying to enjoy a meal with friends with people standing 2 inches behind us looking down. Now that's annoying!
