spend three hours at the beach , then pick up snacks and beer and hang out on the balcony till late-ish.wander down the main street , being accosted by maitre d ' types all the way , till we decide on the first restaurant . the food and atmosphere were good , nothing spectacular though . afterwards , beer and ice cream again , at another cafe down the street , followed by more beer , and somehow it was one am .

Question: Why are maitre d ' types accosting me along the way ?
Answer: They work for the restaurants and are trying to bulk up their crowds inside .None of the above choices .They are looking to get a 5 star rating for the head chef .They do n't get paid unless they get someone who has a " golden ticket " .
