[quote=APAULT,251398]Corkage is an old tradition in the UK. It was originally for people who wanted to bring a particular wine from their own cellars rather than the restaurant's. As the restaurant is not getting the profit from selling their wine they quite reasonably charge the fee. In China I have been amazed at what people get away with in restaurants. In one case I saw a group of three order some basic vegetables and rice and then they went out and bought meat from a street stall...and of course left all their rubbish from it too. There is no way that would be allowed in most countries.[/quote]
