As often happens to me, I stop in the afternoon at the bar terrace for an aperitif. I head to the bar to order, as always. The girl tells me to sit at the table because now the orders are taken directly there. "Great news" I think, even though I liked the formula order/pay/take the number to put on the table (Mc style) and they bring your order to you. Oh well... different policies but it's okay. The new windows are also beautiful, in fact they give a more "launge" style... but even the "nautical" wood from before wasn't bad. I sit down, the boy arrives, I order a spritz and ask if I can kindly also have 2 (I mean 2) chips. The boy stops for a moment then says to me: "look, the chips/peanuts are 4 euros (4 EURO?) more... new policy". Wow 2 small bowls 4 euros... I tell him no (it doesn't seem fair to me) and I just ask him for the spritz. It arrives with a glass that I notice is smaller than the usual one they served before, and frankly it doesn't seem to me that the proportions between Aperol, prosecco and seltzer are right (be careful barman, being an IBA coded cocktail the spritz has a precise recipe). Oh well... I relax looking at the sea. I finish, I go to the cash register to pay: "it's 7 euros... thanks" 7 EUROS for a "glass of ALMOST spritz without even a chip"!!!!!!!! Honestly it doesn't seem fair to me!!! Beware of traders not to be greedy and want to maximize profits in a very short time... because you risk not being competitive and losing customers. And don't tell me that all in all it's the place that makes the difference, because... yes, the terrace overlooking the sea may be choreographic, but we're talking about a spritz and 2 (I mean 2) chips. It took very little to avoid losing a customer!
