Haha, you can tell how you should act in a restaurant by how fancily they plate the food. My family and I once got stranded by a technical error in Ecuador, and our airline couldn't book us another flight for 5 days. They put us up in luxury airport hotel, and we pretended to be upset, but never in my life could I afford to stay in a hotel like that, nor eat in the restaurant downstairs. We paid with our food using vouchers, and the kitchen staff knew we were regular folk, so they would often sneak us extra treats.
The cast iron is a friendly site, reminds me of back home in the USA where many countryside people still use these pans, I even brought a few here to Cambodia.
Honestly, I haven't been to a "fancy" restaurant, at least not fancy enough that there are more than 5 cutleries and the food are beautifully plated you wouldn't want to eat them. I wonder how it'd feel to be actually eating in a real fine dining restaurant. Maybe soon!
Sounds crazy to be stranded for another 5 days but if the service is good and free, I might want an extension! 😂
It is popular here in the Philippines.
