While it's stupid to turn away money, that's a judgement call. There's a lot of work to be done before people can go home for the night. And while a restaurant will stay open another half-hour or so for people currently eating to finish their food... no way in hell will you be able to order after "last call".

What does he expect? Some restaurants will show preferential treatment to rich clients and celebrities/politicians... will bow down to their whims. Some won't. It's stupid not to, but nowhere in the handbook does it say that you actually have to accept some bigwig after hours just because he's a mayor.

sa resto operations...the dining area is still open but the kitchen is close na...kaya nga meron last order advice sa mga clients who are already in the dining area.

dapat po ata pag nakalagay sa pinto na hanggang 9 ang resto ay dapat pwede sila magpapasok hanggang ganong oras, then dapat ang kitchen mas late mag close.

This story just goes to show the sad state of perception the public has with govt officials and employees. HECK if it was a tsikoteer or even just an ordinary citizen recounting the exact same story, I am quite sure that the resto would have been the one getting all the flack. Totoo naman di ba?

Restaurants have to watch the bottom line. A small group of people eating at a closed restaurant would mean extra overhead for the restaurant because:

- overtime pay for the waiters, cooks, dishwashers, security, etc.
- delayed closing of the establishment for the night (all the stuff needed to be cleaned, etc before going out for the night.)
- extra electricity just for single table (especially if the place has A/C)
- extra cost of preparing the food with the kitchen closed then having to reopen it.
