Should restaurants offer families a discount if children can behave through dinner?
MILWAUKEE (WITI) -- Don't you hate sitting down for dinner at your favorite restaurant -- and having your experience ruined by someone else's unruly children?
For some, there's nothing worse than trying to enjoy a relaxing dinner with kids screaming, crying -- or worse, running around unsupervised in the background.
A restaurant in Calgary is turning the tables on parents — and TIPPING families whose children make it through dinner without any behavior problems!
Calgary's Carino Bistro is deducting $5 from the bill for any table where the youngest guests don't leave other guests with a bad taste in their mouths.
Most people think the small reward is a wonderful idea — but then again, most of us can recall meals, flights, movies and/or funerals disrupted by children who can’t sit still or stay quiet.
It all started when a family noticed a $5 discount on their Mother's Day brunch bill at Calgary's Carino Bistro.
The discount was labeled "Well Behaved Kids" -- and subtracted $5 from the family's bill.
The family posted a photo of their receipt to Facebook -- and the story took off.
Since then, it has stirred quite a bit of controversy!
