"The following morning though our clothes and instruments smelt of cooking oil needless to say will not be going back."
I know that feeling well and refuse to frequent restaurants or coofee shops like that.
I think that if all restaurants were like that we'd be in trouble.
Not so long ago, all pubs were like that and we had to put up with other peoples bad habits if we wanted a drink - thankfully - in Ireland at least, we no longer have to, and long may that continue to be the case.
