How it works
Rooftop restaurants overlooking the Hawa Mahal on Tripolia Bazaar and around the City Palace area give tourists a menu with standard prices, then present a bill with separate charges for "rooftop access," "live music," "table reservation," or significantly higher per-item prices than quoted. In some cases the menu shown during ordering is swapped before billing for one with doubled prices. Complaints are met with aggressive staff or demands to pay before leaving.
