I understand all the reasonable complaints above, even if I do not agree with the tenor. But we should stick to fair complaints...

It's almost always inappropriate to bring your own food to a restaurant, especially without prior discussion. It imposes a very real opportunity cost for the restaurant and the servers--their overhead and time are eaten up with no compensation. How would anyone anyone need to be told that? She should have thanked them and paid the fee with a smile
