We
have
been
coming
to
Las
Palmas
twice
a
year
for
the
last
five
years.
After
trying
a
lot
of
different
restaurants
in
the
Las
Canteras
area,
Bodegon
el
Biberon
stood
out
as
one
of
the
best
that
we
found.
The
restaurant
interior
feels
really
traditional
in
an
authentic
way.
The
food
has
always
been
amazing.
And
the
ladies
and
gentlemen
who
work
there
have
always
made
us
feel
very
welcome,
despite
us
speaking
hardly
any
Spanish.
On
our
various
holidays
we
have
been
to
Bodegon
about
3
or
4
times
per
trip.
I
would
say
that
we
are
friendly,
quiet
and
polite
and
thank
the
servers
when
anything
is
brought
to
the
table.
We
usually
tip
around
15%,
but
have
tipped
more
because
it
is
such
a
lovely
place.
However,
on
our
most
recent
trip
to
Las
Palmas,
things
dramatically
changed.
We
chose
to
visit
Bodegon
el
Biberon
on
the
evening
that
we
arrived.
Several
of
the
usual
staff
were
present
but
a
young
male
server,
who
we
had
never
seen
before,
was
assigned
to
our
table.
It
became
very
obvious,
very
quickly,
that
there
was
something
about
us
that
he
did
not
like.
He
had
a
very
abrupt
manner,
made
no
attempt
to
be
friendly,
or
even
smile,
and
almost
threw
the
plates
of
food
on
the
table.
We
observed
him
interacting
in
a
friendly,
chatty
way
with
other
clients.
When
we
tried
to
attract
his
attention
to
order
additional
items
and
then
eventually
pay
the
bill,
he
seemed
to
be
intentionally
ignoring
us.
Having
both
worked
in
shops
and
had
to
deal
with
rude
members
of
the
general
public,
we
assumed
he
was
having
a
bad
night,
settled
our
bill,
left
a
15%
tip
(as
the
food
and
the
other
members
of
staff
are
always
great)
and
left.
My
wife
was
really
upset
by
this
change
of
attitude
at
probably
our
favourite
restaurant.
We
avoided
going
back
to
Bodegon
for
the
rest
of
our
visit.
My
wife
did
not
want
to
return.
But
I
persuaded
her
on
our
very
last
night
to
go
back
to
the
restaurant.
Unfortunately,
we
were
waited
on
by
the
same
young
guy.
And
despite
our
efforts
to
be
extra
friendly
he
was,
unbelievably,
even
more
rude
than
at
the
start
of
the
week.
We
ate
the
three
dishes
and
drank
the
beers
that
we
ordered.
We
would
have
ordered
more
food
and
drink,
but
we
could
not
stand
his
attitude
any
longer.
I
paid
the
bill
and
for
the
very
first
time,
left
no
tip
at
all.
Over
the
years
we
have
been
coming
to
this
restaurant,
we
must
have
spent
well
over
€1000.
Maybe
his
attitude
was
down
to
our
lack
of
speaking
the
Spanish
language?
Maybe
it
was
our
nationality?
Maybe
it
was
our
ethnicity?
But
we
are
always
polite
and
friendly.
And
we
have
had
no
previous
issue
at
this
restaurant.
The
management
need
to
understand
that
one
bad
member
of
staff
could
completely
ruin
years
of
future
business
of
a
great
establishment
like
Bodegon
el
Biberon.
We
are
already
booked
for
another
trip
to
Las
Palmas
in
2024.
But
I
don't
think
we
will
be
going
back
to
our
favourite
