First, let me ask who charges $8 for a bottle of San Pellegrino sparkling water? Perhaps the kind of restaurant looking to recoup the cost of having to prepare a second meal for us because our original dish was so intolerable? I don't know if this was their sly attempt to get back at us for not pretending our food was almost edible or if this is a regular scam they like to pull, but either way I'm grateful we made it out of there without food poisoning even if we left with suspiciously light pockets.
