I can only imagine their suitcases stuffed full after visiting the Latin Quarter. I'm mad again just typing it in. They ruined the entire night for me. I absolutely should have gone downstairs as the other two gentlemen at my table did. My mistake.
I encountered that sort of thing a few times. I took the opportunity to side with the staff. It took a few asides and winks and nods, but soon we laughed and joked about the A-holes. I did tell them how sorry I was that some people represented the USA so poorly - but this was before Trump. Not sure Americans are greeted with as much friendship now.
