Very badddd! - a very bad behavior of the waiter who served us. why did I ask for the bill, he told me that an Aperol splitz costs 15 euros. He started to scream and hit the table with his hand because I told him that the price is too high compared to other places in Florence where I had the same drink. We are shocked by his behavior that screamed like a madman.
