Think you are missing the point Bahston. The restaurant opposite charges 1.10!! When I mentioned it to the owner, he told me that that’s for CC’s. So I told him that I always pay cash and pointed out that opposite charges 1.10 for CC or cash. However he still charged me 1.18 on another occasion.
It is gouging as at the time it’s way over the rate and i mentioned your reply to the owner of Tropicana and her comment was that was too high and tourists would notice this fact and perhaps not return. She never mentioned a problem with this or her acting as a currency exchange!
It’s rather a silly discussion anyway as if you like the meal pay up as it’s their rules. I’m simply pointing out the disparity.
