As an Italian the fact that they asked for tips says a lot lmao. If it wasnt obvious from the ridicolous prices, they are there just to scam tourists. Tipping is not really a thing in Italy, it happens at restaurants but rarely, and you certainly dont ask for it.
Yeah, and did you see the ""receipt""?
@@LorenzoLeonardini oh yeah I didnt see "tips not included 10% good 20% excellent" hahahahah che schifosi mamma mia
Tipping is normal in Europe I always tip in a restaurant if I’m well served but is certainly not expected or even an obligation.
These days its expected in most of europe. @@mesa9724
tipping is not really a thing in italy...like in the rest of Europe! lol.
Its such a flex being able to speak a bunch of languages this fluently, well done peter
Yeah, he's got a pretty good Spanish. I think he got better than last time I watched him speaking it :)
Spanish, English and Slovakian is impressive but not enough!
@@nejkajaryba1710 nigga what
@@nejkajaryba1710 That means that he can talk with more than half of the world from knowing English /Spanish + I believe he can talk about basic things with other eastern European Slavic countries (and Russia) from knowing Slovakian.

It rhymes. No lid. I shit. 😂😂😂
As a person that lives in Italy , 27€ FOR A BRUSCHETTA???I can literally buy a very good pizza at my local pizzeria for just 7€
It’s actually priced on the menu. Nobody is forcing them to order it….the scams are when prices aren’t disclosed (like ‘market price’ for fish). These guys knew exactly what everything cost, so don’t know why they are whining.
for that money i get a 0.75 gram of cocaine in europe lol
@@rickroll9086so you can just charge high prices for shit food? and that isnt a scam? what are you smoking
@@rickroll9086the scam is when you dont know the quality of the food, if you buy a 37 euro bruchetta, you expect it to be high quality
@@johnmehlman5195 Not really, plenty of places charge expensive prices and the quality isn't better. If you go to high end night clubs, they charge you thousands for a table and hundreds of dollars for a water bottle, and well, it's still water at the end of the day.
You can buy popcorn for 0.25 cent at the grocery store, go to a movie theater and they charge you near 40X at 10 dolllars. Still not a scam. It's expensive, up to you to pay it or not. Nobody lied to anyone.
They didn't allow you to pay with card because they didn't make a valid legal receipt, they're not gonna pay any taxes on that 150 euros...
Yeah, and people dispute it. But I'm used to that as a good 'ol European so I already ask in advance: Cards accepted? Got the logos on the door...
@@officialflorint You have to accept card in italy, by law. If you refuse, you get fined. But tourist don't know this and they don't call the police
They should step up their game by asking 2 euros for entry and 2 euros to get the menu. Jokes intended 😄
send this video to police lol
I purposely avoid hairdresser saloons here in Copenhagen who only takes cash and not even mobilepay. Many of the saloons in this part of Copenhagen are litterally money laundry businesses and I don't really feel like supporting that
150 euro in italy should be like 3 people on the sea, drinking wine, eating the best pasta ... going 'large' in life. absolute scam place
Last year 5 of us had a meal in Sardinia, by the sea, with fish that was freshly caught that day (they literally brought the fish out to us before they cooked it), with wine etc. 300 euros. Less per person than this ripoff.
You can't realistically expect to rent a boat for 150 euros in both Italy and most of the European countries. The price of their meal alone would have been reasonable only if the restaurant were a notorious one
@@vanitas. I don't think they meant a boat, just a nice restaurant with a sea view
Absolutely agree. You can get a pizza in the countryside from a family run restaurant for just 4 euros and it might just be the pizza of your life. Talking from experience. I love Italy, it's always a pleasure to visit this country
@@vanitas. €150 for 2 people is not reasonable unless we talk a place in the Guide Michelin.
- Tips?
- Chips?
LOL I literally burst out laughing 🤣🤣🤣
Genius move
Best part of the video
Two years ago, I ate there on my own. I did not have any cash on me because I was a tourist and did not know you could not pay with card. They DEMANDED my bag (filled with my personal belongings) While they obeyed me to go get cash. They demanded a tip and when I did not give them any, they wanted to keep my bag. NEVER again
You should have called police or "Guardia di Finanza"
That looks more like ur problem 😂
And... Why did you comply with any of that?
For real?!!
In italy is illegal for any shop not have eletronic pay,they just try to stole from tax
”You ate, you paid, bye!”
Pure Michelin standard, right there.
Except their foods aren't at the michelin standards at all. Below average

Haha Vlad's toilet review is like a poem: "This is toilet, this is sink, toilet has no lid, I'm going to shit". Beautiful!
I think it's about that we're all different (this is toilet, this is sink) and about humanity has its flaws, that we're all imperfect ( the missing lid). But in the end ..., well ..., I havent figuered out the shit analogy yet..
@@svenericklemantowitz7233 Vlad is such a poet, and a philosopher too. Thanks for the clarification of his inspirational words.

Im a server and I could not not imagine ASKING for tips when taking payment from a table. What a disgusting embarrassment to the industry.
if you ever work in US as a server, better you learn to ask, dude. Otherwise, you only get 2 bucks per hour.
@@mortensenvick5711 you must give some dogshit service if you have to ask for tips
Depends on the country in Netherlands and some places in Germany your tip is immedietly deducted upon paying the receipt without any questions.

And the restaurant’s name has a romanian name in it “Lacatus Vasile” 😂
He is from Marocco 100%
@@berna1910 Yes
"Only cash" in a city like Milan is laughable. Every italian knows what it means when a place accepts only cash... For anyone visiting Italy in the future: know that BY LAW they MUST let you pay with your preferred method of payment. If they do not let you pay with card, first ask if you can pay using bank transfer and if they still do not accept it, threaten to call Guardia di Finanza (phone number is 117), they'll backtrack really fast. You are allowed to leave without paying if they do not accept card payment or bank transfer and you do not want to use cash. You also would be in the right from a legal standpoint because of a law that recently passed.
yep
Good to know! Thank you ❤
Oh, of course! That makes me wonder how many businesses are doing this tactic... Hmmm...
Well then I know where I'll eat next time in Milano lmao
I have a baseball cap of the Guardia di Finanza. Quite a few times when a restaurant tried to scam me, I would pull out my cap from my bag and watch their face turn pale. It's weird because it suddenly awakened their language skills. :)
It's the best restaurant review I have ever watched... straight to the point with an investigative confrontation. Keep up the goodwork Peter.
If you go to italy you're surrounded with places where you're have decent food at decent price. I'm more used to food in Spain so Italian food most of the times comes as very soft for me but still I find difficult to have bad food in Italy (I have not been in southern Italy though, only north), so if you go to a place like this that screams tourist trap it's basically because you're the most context unaware person ever.
"Do you know a joke in English?"
"Without rascism content?"
'NO'
😂😂
😅😂😂😂
Surprised?? His name is Vlad, afterall!!
As an Italian, I hope that this video contributes to closing down the restaurant of these scammers, leaving room for honest restaurateurs...
Yea but you guys won’t do sh*t about it. At least when you visit the area you should warn people and yell at the staff
@@biggestcomplainer that's a really fast way to earn a beating by 5 egyptians or pakistanis
I was alarmed by the waiter declaring the tap water too dirty to drink. I'd have asked him how they wash their dishes, y'know if the tap water is contaminated and "dirty here".
These places are everywhere in Europe
@@krazyshady902 The worst city for any traveller of cynical disposition to visit is Venice. The most magnificent city which is horrifyingly soulless. It's desperately sad and the energy is ugly. Underwhelming food, shameless chasing of every rolling Euro coin, heartless service and a disdain for the tourists that they actually rely on for income. There's no love in Venice. It's so beautiful but so ugly.
loved vlad's comprehensive toilet review, very direct and efficient hahah!! definitely left me with a lot of laughter!! keep up with the amazing work!!
i spit my drank when he was asked to tell a joke and the only jokes he knew were racist ones
What are you talking about. There is no section like that
@@premrockon clearly didnt watch it then!!
The toilet has no lid, I'm going to shit😂😂😂
@@danidamianov2739Short and sweet; kratko i slatko. 😂😂😂😂
I love the costumes (the gold suit!!😂) and the way the "reviews" are read is hilarious!!! 😅
How did the waiter know it was filming glasses?
The pasta is 47$ CAD, it's worth 12-15$. 🤦
You guys are hilarious! New subscriber! 😊
in italy we called these guys "truffatori"
As a native spanish speaker, I'm surprised by how well Peter can speak under a tense situation!
loved that part too ! Also when you are pissed off and rightfully so, usually you can articulate very well. Because you know exactly what and why you are pissed off about.
yeah, I'm impressed, and I don't get impressed that much.
as a spanish speaker, my ears bleed when I hear "camareros". The right word is "meseros)
As an Italian I can't believe they had the guts to charge 27 euros for bruschette. It's usually prices 1.50, 2 euros at best. This is so embarassing! The waiter was probably scared that if he was honest he'd be immediatly fired from his boss who was clearly watching.
EDIT before this comment sections goes haywire: I didn't want people arguing in the comments, I'm so sorry! If you don't believe me it's ok, I live in a very smol town in the south with tomato plantations all over. Just please don't insult anyone for two slices of bread, lmao
1.5 to 2 euros is not bad at all.
27 euros is insane, in Brazil (even though we have 40 million italian-brazilians) in most italian restaurants the max price a Bruschetta can get is R$ 27 (5 euros), and Im talking about over 20 bruschettas for 5 euros
I am not 100% italian but i can assure you after spending a tons of time there, a bruschette is around 5 to 7 euros, at least in the south
@@julienhuart8233 I'm from the south too, but I think the price depends on the city and on the quantity of bruschette (where I live they're that cheap for real, and a very big Margherita is 3 euros only)
Mate, 1,5/2€? Dove? Manco coi pomodori scaduti te la servono a 2€ le bruschette dai
Aggiungi che sono in centrale a Milano, 27€ anche no, ma 2€? Non siam ridicoli
Love your humor. I can see through what you are doing and we all love it !
As a server i always ask customers if they want another drink once theirs is finished. Not to push them to consume, but because I dont want them to sit around with empty glasses. So its not always negative, it can just be an attentive waiter
exactly, people that never worked on the industry don't understand. Maybe you'll be busy in the exact moment they will make that request
as an italian myself, it HURTS to see that overpriced menu. 15€ for bruschetta?? almost 30€ for pasta??? and ASKING for tips? in italy, tips are not even a thing sometimes, we don’t usually give them that much and surely we (as a waitress myself) don’t ask for them. also no cards payment accepted? oh boy. they are not going to pay a single cent of a tax for that 150€ bill.
no words left
Tourist trap run by Romanian Gypsies, although you have to wonder how they were not closed after so much negative exposure. They might not pay tax but they probably pay their bribes.
Yes, not going to pay a penny in taxes. Nearly impossible to prove.
The bruschetta cost TWICE that as unbelievable as it is to say.
tip is definetely expected in italy, even though quite small, like in other european countries
@@mortensenvick5711 yes, they are expected, NOT asked on purpose
As an Italian, from Milan, I'm extremely sorry when I see this type of stuff. Our country is full of awesome places where you can literally have the best time of your life! When I see tourist that fall in those tourists traps it really is a shame... Please, avoid these typle of places in the centre or (like this one) behind the city station, watch the reviews beforehand and the best thing would be to talk to locals and get recommendations directly from them :)
Theres a lot of good stuff even in the centre, just ask some locals, we know!!
Good and bad places everywhere - don’t take it to heart. Only had the pleasure of visiting your country once - many many years back (wasn’t Milan though). Lots of fond memories of great food and really friendly people!
Everywhere are great and horrible places no need to be sorry my friend
In all fairness, that server didn't even look Italian. Strong Gypsy vibe and look, if you ask me.
Well, they did deliberately seek out the worst, and they found it. 😅 To tell the truth, I also had the worst pizza in my life in Italy, but it was up in the Tyrolean region. Still it was run by actual Italians.
So the moral is, you can find wonderful and awful things in Italy. :-)
Agree👏👏👏❤️
First time watcher, and I really like the way you conduct yourself and the confrontation. Well done.
I appreciate a lot your wanting for answers for that treatment, i love your honesty and i see you are a really respectful person, you deserve all the life has given you, i am italian btw and p.s. that wasn't even close to the best food you can eat in Italy
remember tourists, card payment is mandatory in Italy (and so should be good food), so if they refuse to accept cards just say you're gonna call "La Finanza" 😂 p.s. Tap water is really not good in Milan
tra l'altro lo scontrino che gli hanno dato non è valido, il che spiega la reticenza verso il pagamento elettronico
Ma in generale non credo ci sia un ristorante in italia che ti dia l'acqua del rubinetto, non ho mai provato a chiedere ma ne sono al 99 % sicuro di ciò.
@@LoreF. nello scorso video a napoli mi pare glie l'abbiano data, poi secondo me in realta è pure contro alle regole haccp 😆

@@LoreF. se la chiedi tutti in generale te la danno.
So Peter, was this the first time you left a restaurant pissed off?
Seems like it haha
I would be pissed if I just left a huge bill and the server was this impolite towards me. I think Peter can be pretty forgiving, but I would be fuming as well. That tourist scam needs to get closed.
True, for those prices i would expect expect this food to be at least "okay". Also cocky and pushy waiters, not letting to charge phone is bs, the only thing they didnt lie about was probably bad tap water.
@@jakubs.5966 That's what I like about this channel, he isn't going all Gordon Ramsay on the food but tells it like it is from a "normal" standpoint. Like that the Caprese tastes good, and that's it and that's fine. But pizza that looks like frozen supermarket food and overcooked pasta in Milan is just trash, and even more with these prices.
@@annaf3915 I would pay good money at a restaurant if I knew the food was excellent. Peter is certainly unique.
@@jakubs.5966 The guy serving was nice until not only Peter didn't leave a tip but he also started asking questions. I think most bad reviews were for people who just noticed the prices and refused to pay. But I legit thought that dude was going to slap Peter.
"Do you know jokes in english?"
"Without racists content?"
"Yeah."
"No."🤣
One of the best on YT! Thanks for existing!
As an Italian, that is beyond shameful.. thanks for exposing this scammer!
Ma perche`? Nobody with brains would think that is typical of Italy. I normally don't go to fancy places, just where the people from the neighbourhood eat, and I've never had anything other than great food and friendly welcomes. I am now sad not to be in Italy, the most human and civilized place on earth.

27€ a bruschetta? I mean, I know Milan is expensive (I work there) but that's a PURE THEFTH! Those prices makes NO SENSE at all. I'm surprised any customer, seeing those, decided to stay...

Quasi lo stesso prezzo con i primi! Davvero incredibile!
Gli unici prezzi che possono starci e’ la birra che purtroppo è rincarata enormemente negli ultimi 10 anni, il caffè (perché ristorante) e la caprese forse, ma giusto perché sono a Milano altrimenti 10 euro max in altri luoghi. In ogni caso penserei che son cari questi 3 elementi eh, ma almeno più comprensibili del resto dei prezzi.
why do u want to jail the customers who decided to stay?

Yeah it’s quite fsmous here in Italy for its scams and many youtubers did videos
@@daviderozzoni9686 that's what I thought. Thanks 👍
probably because he showed their faces.
I've been in restaurants in Italy where they wanted you to take a quick picture (not bothering the other guests) because they were proud of their food. Or maybe they were just too polite to say 'no.'
They don't pay taxes you can't pay with credit 💳 card . Also the prices sky high . Never sit in restaurants in the center of the city , tourist attractions scams
Only cash because that is not a regular fiscal document. They don't accept card because they did not printed a regular document on which they declare taxes
Bro the eastern european face 🤨 in the lambo while eating pickles is too funny

‘This is the best food in Italy, they give us 1 cuz they are jealous.’ if I could give a 0 I would
I love how the waiter claims he can speak Spanish, but is really just speaking Italian with a few Spanish words mixed in. Then as he starts to lose his chill it slowly turns into pure Italian.
I thought that's what was happening! But I'm not fluent enough in either language to tell for sure, thanks for the confirmation
That's not pure italian, just broken italian.

There are restaurants like this in every tourist destination, their only purpose is to fleece the public for as much cash as possible.
I laughed with this video so much, I loved it, keep it up
just gotta comment that the voice acting on the reviews was hilarious and made it so much better
As an Italian I stopped at 11:37... In an average pizzeria if you look at the menu and see a margherita for 12 euros, or Ananas (pineapple) pizza or Pizza with chicken 🤢, you usually change pizzeria lol. Usually a pizza will cost NO MORE than around 12 euros, unless it's unique or has a lot of toppings. A margherita will cost no more than 7 euros. You don't see 20 euros for a pizza even in more expensive restaurants, unless they are important Italian chefs with michelin rewards like Carlo Cracco, but these don't seem like Cracco to me 😅
Maybe a pizza with caviar costs 40€ lol
More like Carlo on Crack
Is there a diameter difference? Or all pizzas are the same?
Non a Milano. Qui 12 Euro e la normalità.

Vlads review straight to the point not a second of breath was wasted. Min maxed his words to 100% efficiency 😂
Lmao you got busted hard with the glasses cam.😂 Tbh I would've spotted them too, they are pretty recognizable.
You know it's a scam when they ask tips, in Italy we don't use tips.
I've visited this restaurant before on my trip to Milan and the same thing happened to me and my partner. We came off of the coach from the airport and were in need of some quick food. We stumbled upon this restaurant and ended up being charged €32 for 1 pizza and two coke zeros. They even added on a charge to use the cutlery! When it came time to pay the bill the exact same man asked me for a tip and held his hand in my face. When I told him 'no tip' he walked away exactly like he did in this video! I never released it was so poorly reviewed until I arrived at my hotel later that evening!!!
LOL that's funny. We spent one night in Milan about 10 years ago and had dinner at an amazing restaurant but our hotel ended up being a scam. Upon arriving there, they told us that our room was flooded due to a plumbing problem so they had to house us in "alternative accomodation". We were picked up close to the hotel in the old town and driven to an area with tall office buildings where we were given a key card to a flat and an access code to the fridge where our breakfast for the next day was stored, along with several other trays for other tourists. The next day when they came to collect the fee we insisted on getting a receipt and paying by card. They pressured us a bit with a discount for cash payments etc but we insisted on seeing the receipt and they said they'd mail it to us, which never happened.
Taking a closer look at the reviews back home, there was a several months gap with no reviews and from then on every single person mentioned the plumbing problem and the alternative accomodation that turned out to be ok. So I guess the original hotel went out of business and someone hijacked their website... and we got a free night in the center of Milan.
Thank you for not tipping these absolute thieves that ruin our country's image
A charge to use the cutlery!?? This is the hieght of a tourist scam, sheer stupidity.
the cutlery charge is common in italy. known as the "Coperto"
The fact that he tried to force a tip 😂
Btw, it's illegal to force a cash payment, they do it to evade taxes.
Visited Milan a few months ago, and family there mentioned that the pipes in Italy are very old which is why Sparkling water is very popular. The tap water at our airbnb was very clean and safe to drink. I'm happy you exposed this restaurant. There are plenty of great restaurants in Milan and well most of italy.
Dearest Peter I've been watching you since the very beginning. I am an Italian from the beautiful city of Verona. I am so glad you are exposing some of the worst tourist traps in our country. You should have called the police.
And what would the police do... As slimy as the resto is... What law did they break?
@@CombatDoc136they evaded taxes , the receipt was not legal 😂
@@jacopodam184 Exactly the receipt was just a print of their order no legal engagments or end of the transaction just a copy and it will be deleted. In my country if they dont provide you with proper receipt you can leave or call the police until its given. Had a party with 16 people and they refused to give normal receipt, they said gonna call the police but i called it at the end everything turned out to be free and they got a fine because their boss didnt give them permission to give out real receipts :D
@@CombatDoc136 They have to leagally allow you to use a cc
I love Verona. It is so stunning!!
Unfortunately the "scamming" that happens in Italy happens in literally every sector where money is involved. The dentist, the book store, you name it, they will all pretend that the card reader doesnt work so you pay in cash and then they probably dont pay taxes. Sometimes they openly say "if you pay cash i will make you pay less". It's sad, but what I saw today is the norm.
I'm Italian btw
It's the same everywhere. I'm from Salzburg and when a German friend visited and told the taxi driver where to go in her German accent, he tried to take us on a huge detour.
Well the "do you need a bill" thing is kinda a tradition in (at least central) Europe, however usually both sides profit from those arrangements.
@@murmor6890 Very true, it's even common practice that when you buy an apartment or house you usually pay a few thousands or tens of thousands of the price on the side to keep the taxes down. So when you hand over the keys you also hand over an envelope full of cash and that's part of the deal. I couldn't b elieve it when I found out this is standard practice
I don't see what's wrong. The government already gets enough taxes. So if both parties pay less, that's a good deal.
Stop whipping yourself! Happens everywhere. Do you feel obligated to punish yourself.
One of the best videos you have done!
word of the day "Toilet has no lid, im going to sh*t" 😂😂
Very suiting name for the restaurant “Gold Mine” because it seems like this restaurant is mining gold out of every customer’s pockets! 😆
As an Italian, I can confirm that I’ve never came across something like this… that was just a shame.
Nonetheless, as long as tap water is concerned, you never ask for tap water at an Italian restaurant, that is not common to ask and it is not socially accepted (it is seen by restaurateurs as a lack of respect). Don’t ask me why 😂, it’s just the way it is.
Your contents are getting more and more quality ❤
Well, technically if someone ask them for tap water not even being a customer they have to provide it because it's basic human need.
Same in Germany - they look at you with seventeen eyes. However, they can't refuse it or say that the same water they use for cooking and washing is 'dirty.'
I'm just going to bring my own water
@@AngloAm That's weird. In France, even if you ask for another drink, they will also serve you tap water by default. Or you ask them if they forgot it.

Places like these deserve to have no more customers. As an italian i am ashamed that resturants like these exist.
Just found your page, and so far it's really good. I will give you one small bit of advice though. If any of the staff ever notice the cameras in your glasses, just tell them that they are smart glasses, and have a computer screen inside of the lens. Since a lot of people have been buying them lately, they might believe you.
people saying great vid after 30 sec after upload.... NPC,s
okay done watching i can agree with NPC,s its a PPPeter classic
Your gold is welcome here.
I watch it at x10 speed
Great vid
We just know
Every PPP upload is a gem, if you know, you already know.
Tysm for that amazing vid once again !! You are exposing those crap restaurants who takes advantages of the tourists with overpriced bad food and hidden costs... sadly those are more expended than we think. Im French and we have the same issues in Paris close to the big tourist attractions, which also make me very sad cus tourists have a very bad image of our country after.
Keep up the good job❤️🔥
Almost 1 mln subscribers. Good job Peter!
As an italian pastry chef, I feel like I HAVE to warn everyone: if you're not satisfyied of what you've already tasted, do NOT order a tiramisu' 😨
If it's homemade, it could be VERY dangerous to eat, since it's made with RAW egg yolks.
Personally, I always make sure to pasteurize the cream (it can be done making a process called a pate a bombe), but if the restaurant has so many bad reviews, I'd strongly suspect that they don't do it.
And it's very dangerous 🤯
LMAO, I came home, grabbed dinner, opened UA-cam and the video was uploaded 8 seconds ago 😂
I hope nothing gross comes up 🤣
Same here, enjoy your meal.
if anyone wants to know, the video is very safe and shows nothing disgusting (except ethics, I guess)
at 14:40 vlad shows the bathroom that (spoiler) looks clean, if anyone dislikes that, now you're aware.
apart from that, chill.
That place is well known around Italy for being the worst restaurant of the whole country, other italians youtuber have done previously videos like yours (that`s why he noticed the camera, they`re used).
Being in the hearth of Milano higher prices ae justified but those ones are unsane, a diavola usually doesn`t cost more than 12/15€ and same price also for that thing they dare calling "bolognese".
I believe they know you were there to record a video as soon as they say the camera and the glasses do I would consider myself lucky bcause you have been "treated well"... wish you don`t get food poisoning 😁
Oh boy. Now I have to go find those videos.
Hey bro im trying to move to italy but i Just Saw that a lot of italians are not satisfied and trying to move out from it and also by watching these videos i really get scared so you as an italian do you think life in italy is good and do you advise me to do it ?
Italians are ALWAYS complaining they ranked 3rd in a survey but Italy overall is better than 95% of the world's countries. No one can tell you to do it or not, depends on your skills and if you can find a job and so many other variables. If you can, go and stay for a month or two FIRST.@@dyn6308
As an Italian this doesn't surprise me at all. prices about double that of a good restaurant where you can eat fresh fish. I would have liked to enter the kitchen to see how clean it is and how fresh the food is.
it is obvious that with a considerable amount of choice on the menu the ingredients cannot all be fresh.
As a human being, for 37 € it's better that Bruschetta herself brings this dish to the table
Keep up the great work Peter. Btw, really enjoying your book ! :)
Btw, I absolutely loved all the stuff Vlad was doing in the background at the start of the video. You guys are so good with the slapstick humor mixed in.
In italy we usually don’t ask tips, if a resturant ask it, its a tourist trap
we do not ask but one, very small, is generally expected
One word: ROMANIANS
Finally, really been looking forward for the next episode! Thank you!
peter straight up said "oh ill find a language you can speak, dont test me" to that waiter.
Peter: Do you know any jokes in English?
Vlad: without racist content? No
🤣
This is really awesome video. Pls make more.
Came for the cheapest restaurant, stayed for the toilet review.
Brilliant video 😂
Really enjoyed the video. So well produced and edited. Big thumbs up! I loved it!
Greetings from Germany ❤😊
You do not have to tip in europe. The price for the meal includes the wages for the workers here so if you are asked to tip, something is off. You CAN tip if you want to but there is no reason for them to ASK for tips.
I'd be happy if restaurants in Australia brought the drinks out that quick
We need more of this. Great. And it helps people to know about the tourist traps, and this is so fun and interesting to watch :)
Another star review from you guys. Funny and honest. Love it!
I hope Guardia di Finanza is watching
I don't know Italy so good but in Spain you can't drink any tab water because there is too much chlorine in it
I'm Italian and obviously they just tryna scam tourists as you already know. What is sad tho it's the image that they leave in the mind of those tourists of Italy and Milan, and that's simply not fair! We have beautiful places and beautiful restaurants where you eat incredibly good and spend low amounts! Keep up the good work Peter, extremely entertaining and informative content!!
Great video!
Greetings from Romania! 🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴
npc

@@robertgula777
hello :)
Thanks for exposing those scammers. That kind of people ruin other people's businesses.
as an italian i'm already offended🔥🔥🔥
But the place or the video?
Romanian tourist trap. It's only on you for not closing it after so many bad reviews.
@@officialflorint the place, overpriced, bad food and rude servers, this is not how good restaurants are in italy
@@AiMusicCovers12 this is not even italian... The owner name says it all.
