Question about Restaurants

New Topic Newest First

Me and a friend went to a restaurant in Lisbon during lunch time. We already had lunch and only wanted to get a dessert and coffee. We asked for the dessert menu but the waiter said we could not order coffee and dessert before the meal. The waiter kept saying to us "We are a restaurant." We decided to leave because we were not that hungry and did not want to order a full lunch meal. Has this happened to anyone else who, when going to a restaurant, the waiter refused to serve you because you wanted to eat out of the normal meal sequence? (Even though they had a dessert menu and a separate drink menu.)
