The tricks restaurants use to make you spend more

Sharing plates
Whether it's meze or tapas, there's been a huge trend in recent years to order several small dishes for sharing. While this is undeniably a pleasant way to eat, it can also be very expensive. While each of those dishes is cheap in itself, prices can really mount up. If you're eating this way, do it as originally intended, by ordering just two or three plates at a time. That way you won't end up with wasted food - and an over-inflated bill.
