But then these are Monday night specials at the local hotel/bar/restaurent. Good food, but not exactly silver service !

As long as the food is good, who cares about the service? If the service is not great, don't leave a tip ![Wink](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif)

We did that recently, and got the full silver service, with waiters hanging round to top up your wine glass for you etc, etc.
4 of us, but with only 1 bottle wine (only 2 drinkers) $125.00
Full 3 course Roast Beef Dinner.
Not available at that price all the time though !!
