Local media GRTimes.gr notes: it seems that inflation and high prices have reached the top in restaurants in Thessaloniki, with the result that one of them charging the ice cubes as well.

Without tonic and a slice of lemon???? Or at least a single drop of angostura bitters swirled round the glass if you happen to be a naval officer, current or retired?? That is heresy. Also who on earth can afford to pay €14 for one glass of gin? I buy a bottle for that.
2 glasses
A typical example of “greed-flation”! Shortly they will have you to pay for a seat and everything they can think of…… like entrace-fee to even get in…
Take your own ice with you in your pocket.
