Where i live ( Croatia ) especially in the tourist season resoturants tended to lower the portions of a meal and increase the cost of a meal at the same time. Short term benificial..yes.. especially if you are resourant on the adriatic coast but long term sustainable.. no.. every few years many new restaurants pop up like spring flowers and are good for a time then they start to do exacly this and they close down within a few years.<br>That sort of bussiness stance is unsustainable be it in the restouran industry or gaming industry..or any industry...
