Re: El Santiago
I know that in California, this kind of surcharge is pretty common. Quite honestly, I was surprised it wasn't in TV given that so many do share one entree. The profit margin on food really isn't that high (most of the money comes from drinks), so two people sharing one meal can pretty much cost the profit of a table of six to nothing. I think that as prices continue to rise you're going to be seeing more of this practice around here, especially in the country clubs.
