PRICES

[Botafogo]

Mr Dutton, how much did they charge for the following items:

linen
clean bathrooms
rent
insurance
labor
heat or air conditioning
furniture
Kitchen equipment
plates, silver and glassware
music licensing
recycling of cooking oil
Workman's comp and FICA contributions
ect


WHAT, they gave you all of that for FREE??? And the food was well worth the money? So what is your point??????

If restaurants in America charged a cover charge for expenses and physical plant like they do in Europe or South America, then you would expect to pay slightly over retail for food and wine. But since they don't (and you presumably would like the place to be there next time you are hungry) just what do you expect them to charge?
