A Guide to Etiquette for the Newly Poor

Customer education.

The owners of large hotels and hotel restaurants are dismayed by the poor behavior of the nouveaux riches who now alone haunt their establishments.

We share this information with our reviewers, who are sure to create some highly comical scenes from it.
