Went into a restaurant the other night here in Annapolis, MD. They have a very nice wine list, featuring a goodly number of Spanish wines in a range of prices. Obviously, a considerable amount of thought has gone into developing the list. When you're seated at the table, they bring menus but don't bring the wine list. You have to ask for it when the wait(person) comes to the table. Now, what possible business reason would any restaurant have - let alone one that actually features a decent wine selection - to _not_ give you the wine list with the menus? Is it to force me to have to ask for it for some reason? Is it to encourage me to buy something else? It happens frequently - this place isn't unique - so I'm thinking there's some deep secret of the restaurant business that I'm not privy to. Why are they hiding things they sell from their customers? -- Archie -- Archie Warnock Internet: warnock@awcubed.com -- A/WWW Enterprises http://www.awcubed.com -- As a matter of fact, I _do_ speak for my employer.
