We ate at a restaurant last night that we like. They did something we hadn’t seen or heard of before. We were seated at a booth and the hostess put a small rattan basket on our table and said, “Put your phone in the basket while you eat, and we will give you a $3 discount on your meal, to foster conversation.” I put my phone in the basket. There was a $3 credit on our bill. I asked if any other places around town were doing this. She didn’t know of any. Maybe it’ll catch on.
@pieist @qurlyjoe I love the idea. In appreciation, I would give the $3 each back to the restaurant and tip based on the charge before the discount!
