Mother and daughter in shock over $900 restaurant bill
<p dir="ltr">A mother and daughter on holiday on the beautiful island of Mykonos have been left reeling at the price of two drinks and a share plate.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The pair were sitting outside the restaurant on their deckchairs for a while before deciding to order two cocktails and share plate of crab legs.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The relaxed duo then asked for the bill – but were left in shock when it arrived at a huge cost of $900.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The two drinks and the share plate altogether cost €520 ($A775) and a €78 ($A116) tip was added on top.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Shocked at the bill, the mother and daughter refused to pay and tried to leave but were stopped by staff. </p>
<p dir="ltr">The mother then said she would file a police report after finding out that it was a common thing that happened to tourists.</p>
<p dir="ltr">She also informed her travel agent to let other tourists be wary of the scam when arriving at the restaurant. </p>
<p dir="ltr">“We knew that the bill would not exceed €200 ($A300); suddenly they asked us to pay €600 ($A900),” she told the travel agent.</p>
