sour grapes

The issue I had with Bruce was that he refused to offer the wine paiiring menu. He also charged double the 495 pesos price per person. Plus he failed to offer a discount for cash which he promised on the phone. I gave him a week to explain himself.

My desire to to alert other diners to the high costs of this restaurant. It is high quality. It is Bruce that chose to throw me under the bus for a few extra bucks. I live here all winter (6 months).

For me the Hacienda San Angel and The Vista Grill offer a better dining experiences for the money. Of course there are many other fine restaurants, too numerous to mention.

The biggest problem with the formula is the mystery surrounding the wine. He refuses to publish a list so it is always a mystery what the bill is going to be.

My wife selected red wine by the glass and it was good. But it was $36 for 3.

When asked to supply a bottle for under $50, they offered a good one for 650 pesos.

I have no objection to paying an uplift for wine in any restaurant. Like you say, that is where they make their money. As long as I know the premium that I am paying.

At No Way Jose, we paid 330 a bottle for a wine available from Costco for 365 a case of 6.

Sounds like with prices like that maybe folks should drink a few glasses at home to more quickly reached the desired effect at the establishment. This thread just got me thinking, I wonder who holds the record of being banned out of PV drinking establishments? I would think it would be pretty close between JR and Bruce, with Freeeye rounding out the top 3....... :shock: :lol:
