La Tapenade - Nice

I'd say the food here was nothing special. It's just a place to eat in the city center, relatively cheap.

We waited another 10 minutes and without any other attention or communication, we left money for our drinks and walked. I've never done this before - I hope I never do it again. By curiosity, I turned back a few moments after our departure and I saw a waiter get rid of our table quickly. I hope that the 50€ of dinner that were supposed to be prepared were in the trash.

And the service (sat outside) was perfect.
