An American tourist in Mykonos who was charged 600 euros for two drinks and a plate of crab legs is taking the restaurant to court, according to greekreporter.com.
Brenda Moulton and her daughter Kaylea went to the DK Oyster Bear on Platis Gialos Beach on the cosmopolitan Greek island of Mykonos, where they each enjoyed a margarita and a plate of crab legs.
Platis Gialos, and Mykonos in general, is known as a luxurious area, with many bars and restaurants that charge a high price for their goods.
The two tourists were then faced with a bill of about 600 euros, or €520.80, for the drinks and food, including a mandatory €80 tip. She also claimed that employees at the restaurant accosted the mother and daughter to enter the restaurant in the first place.
“An employee of one of the restaurants in Platis Gialos jumped in front of us and started saying persistently: ‘Sit here! Sit here!’” Moulton said in speaking to Proto Thema, a Greek newspaper.
