MADRID (AFP) -
Spanish police were on Friday hunting more than a hundred restaurant customers who fled without paying the bill.
The party enjoyed a 2,000-euro ($2,100) banquet on Monday at the Hotel Carmen restaurant in Bembibre, northern Spain, before promptly doing a runner.
"They were dancing, then suddenly they had disappeared. In one minute, a hundred people had left," restaurant boss Antonio Rodriguez told Cadena Ser radio.
"They didn't leave in little groups -- no, they went all at once."
Restaurant staff were unable to stop them, Rodriguez said. "You can't do anything when there's so many of them."
The Guardia Civil police declined to confirm media reports that the fleeing diners were from Eastern Europe, but an official from the force said they were not Spanish nationals.
"We know roughly where they are," he added.
Muslim gypsies?
Guest workers?
Flash dine-and-dash.
And that right there is the perfect picture of socialism.
That’s why usually restaurants require payment up front for these things.
That would seem to rule out Muslims as they don't dance with anything but goats.
Sounds like gypsies.
ROTFL! Gotta love that “free stuff!”
$21 per person? Translating may be an issue.
“What if everybody decided to eat at the same restaurant and they all ordered the veal, but they don’t (in real life)...”
- a past movie line stuck in my brain.
That would seem to rule out Muslims as they don't dance with anything but goats.
Maybe the article avoided mentioning goats, the same as they never mention race or characteristics of certain hoodlums in the US.
If it's not mentioned, you can assume.
Here's a pic of a couple leaving.
That would be my guess.
You just need to find one.
SOMEONE will post pics of their “feat” online. Track down just one person and stick them with the bill.
They will fold like a cheap suit.
LOL
Sounds like Roma (gypsies), but I suppose it could be communists, they’re both after the same thing. They’re the EU free *hit army.
No deposited no credit card put on file ?
Chew and screw!
