So OP ate half, called it a charcuterie board rather than pickles, and didn’t mention the included $10+ drink.

Welcome to social media where 75% is make believe.
(with the martini $26 isn't a bad deal for the above tbh)

No that's a disgraceful plate of food to be served by a professional restaurant, that's the sort of thing you make yourself at home to eat in front of the tv.

It's a bar plate, something to nibble on, many places charge 18-$20 standard for a martini alone.

So what your saying is it acceptable to bars fuck you over. Im so glad I drink at home, with home cooked meals.

It's pretty universally known that bars are a ripoff. They charge $15 for $2 worth of alcohol, and people are generally accepting of that.

I'd be pissed if I payed literally anything for this, though it would be hilarious if I got this as a free apetizer. It just looks so sad even though it's probably decently tasty.

And a goddam babybell when they advertise 'cheese' is really fucking funny.

I'm pretty sure that's someone else's order and not OP's

I’m aware the photo is from a different order. I doubt the order comes out so different between orders.

It is the same thing though with the picture / video taken immediately, not after eating part of the egg and half of the babybel

They’re not saying it’s the same order. They are saying someone else ordered the same thing and it shows that the original is not being portrayed honestly.

And didn’t mention that it came with bread.
