by the glass

Hi guys, thanks for your responses. I know the restaurants need to cover their expenses, but I agree with WC that we seem to be carrying more than our share of the burden. We are not the only ones enjoying those nice oversized plates and linen napkins. As for ordering two bottles instead of one, we are certainly in that boat. We would be much more likely to do that if the bottles prices were more reasonable. After eating out this weekend, (and unfortunately making a poor choice of syrah) I came home and had a nice glass of port rather than try something else from the restaurant. This restaurant is one that I frequent, and it has some nice wines, I know I could have found something that I would have enjoyed, but not for the price they were asking. Guess I'm cheap too!
