Romanza breakfast

As a newbie, you're talking a lot of sense.

lilly:
Waspman, you said it depended on your likeability and that is what I found petty.
Whether you have been going there for years or it is your first visit should not depend on your likeability like you suggested and I doubt the Romanza owners/staff would want people suggesting this. They want to attract custom and people thinking of booking the Romanza could be put off by suggestions that it depends on your likeability whether you get jam or not. That is all I was saying.

Waspman:
If people are put off booking because of suggestions they may not be liked or they don't get jam, then it’s a sad day.

I wish Yiannis hadn’t mentioned the jam now.

All guests are customers and all pay to stay there. To treat some differently to others is asking for trouble in my opinion and is not the way to run a business. It should not depend on likeability, that to me sounds petty and very childish.

Hi Lilly
I would just like to clarify the point regarding the qumquat jam.This has nothing whatever to do with Leo & Katie who run the Romanza restaurant they were a gift  from Nitsa who along with her brother Mike own the Romanza.They in turn let the restaurant to Leo and Katie.It was my personal choice to use the jam at breakfast and it no way could it be construed as priority breakfasts for regulars.
Nitsa and her husband Kostas have been very good friends since our first visit 10 year ago.There has never a year gone by, from year one when I have not left the Romanza with a momento of some kind. For the last 9 years I have brought a box of chocolates for Nitsa and her fellow cleaners to share at tea breaks.These are just small gifts between true friends.
I hope this this clears up any misunderstanding.

While I was typing this 3 more posts were made.One of which was a comment wishing I not mentioned the jam.The makes two of us.
As for Waspmans choice of the word likeability I believe that was also a mistake.Having said that and having been at the Romanza during this period I understand why he said it.
 

lilly:
It is not about the actual jam, it is about suggesting that it depends on your likeability factor[your words]. I am sure the Romanza would not be happy with people suggesting the above and that is all I was saying.
