    Because hiding prices in obscure surcharges is deliberately misleading customers. Given that they are surely having a special menu for the occasion they can easily print the true prices instead of fake prices. I would avoid shady places doing that. If they fool customers when it comes to paying who knows how the fool them in the kitchen.

        Having to calculate your final price of your meal, is a hidden price. A transparent price is when you pay concrete prices for concrete services, without any x% surcharge on everything. Maybe you like it that way, but exactly that should be illegal in the EU because it serves no purpose other than making prices appear smaller than they are by having a smaller number there that is not the full price.
