I attempted to pay with a card and was lectured for quarter-hour by our waiter about who is aware of what, main me to go stroll for 20 minutes to discover a money machine. Wasn’t the largest inconvenience on the planet, however holy geez I didn’t really feel like I had earned that lecture. The higher information, although: the beer was EXCELLENT.
