Both William Tell and the 1812 Overture are my classical favorites.

Costing the business 9 cents for a glass of soda?? I had a friend that had a resaurant and he explained to me that you have to add the overhead into every item that he sold. Payroll, workers comp insurance, electricity, propane, oil, linen service, landscaping, advertising, taxes, taxes, and more taxes, etc, etc. So that 9 cent glass of soda is more like 1.20-1.60 a glass.

That’s just wrong... I'm on your side; I'll never go there again. There, that will teach them... no refills, that's no way to treat kids.

Oh wait! That's the place that has the best ever Rack of Lamb with spaetzels and red cabbage. Then the Snowballs in Toblerone sauce, to die for... The place that just a short walk up the hill from Glidden Cove, that makes such a wonderful evening sail and dinner.

I've changed my mind... Tell your kids to drink water. I'll be heading over there the next time up that way for another wonderful feast and evening by the fire. And furthermore I don't care how much it costs; to get a little bit of Bavaria for the evening... it's worth it.

We love the food and the people at the WT.

Having a couple of youngsters and a great love of eating out, I have learned to listen to the question the server ask regarding our drinks.

If they say "would you like a refill on your soda?" I feel comfortable that it is a free refill.

If they say "would you like another soda?", this might require a question on the charge for refills. It is likely not free.

If they take my son's empty glass and return with another, I feel comfortable that its a free refills.

At least if you have this observation when the check arives you have testimony to offer.

The best solution for me is to have beer with my Wiener Schnitzel.

Try the snowballs. OMG
