Hi Don,

Thanks, that's a pretty funny story! I've seen some strange "trends" but that pretty much takes the cake!

There is a restaurant I go to sometimes, where you think the plate is almost empty - the portion size is VERY SMALL.... But the reason why is because it's by the ocean, and you get to look out over the beautiful ocean as you eat. I guess you're paying for the view, so they reduce the portions accordingly.... :)
