Reservations in restaurants are increasingly limited in time. In New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, London, Paris, Copenhagen and Stockholm, tables are sometimes occupied up to three times in one evening.
For many people, the time slots are a nuisance: "I then feel driven and like a money machine that should go fast" But there are also positive things to be gained from the time-limited reservations. After all, these prevent food and drink from becoming even more expensive than is already the case.
