Eight Chinese tourists are embroiled in a dispute after they were handed a bill for 16,500 shekels (3,280 pound) at a restaurant in the Israeli Arab village of Abu Ghosh, where meals are usually relatively inexpensive.

　　近日有8名中国游客在耶路撒冷附近的一家餐馆疑似被宰的事引发了热议，他们一顿饭就花了1.65万新锡克尔(3280英镑，约为2.92万人民币)。这家餐馆位于一个叫阿布.高什的以色列阿拉伯村庄，那里的消费通常并不贵。

　　The high cost of the meal at the restaurant, also named Abu Ghosh, came to light after an Israeli tour operators association posted a copy of the bill on the internet, showing that the eight diners had been charged pound 800 for a private room, pound 130 for starters, pound 1180 for alcohol, pound 628 for main courses and pound 270 for dessert. They were also charged pound 300 for service.

　　疑似宰客的这家餐馆也叫“阿布.高什“，以色列一旅行协会在网上晒出了这张帐单后，这顿天价饭才得以曝光。帐单显示，8人订包间价格800英镑，开胃菜价格130英镑，酒水价格1180英镑，主菜价格628英镑，甜点价格270英镑，另外还收取了300英镑服务费。

　　The village of Abu Ghosh, in the hills near Jerusalem, is popular with tourists for the rustic local restaurants, many of which specialise in hummus.

　　阿布.高什村庄位于耶路撒冷附近的山中，当地有多家物美价廉的小餐馆，很受游客欢迎，特色食品是一种叫做“胡姆斯”(鹰嘴豆泥)的美食。

　　The bill was published by the Israel Incoming Tour Operators Association, who criticised the restaurant and said: “There may be a billion Chinese, but they may not all be suckers.”

　　这份帐单被公布在以色列旅行者协会上，该协会说，“中国人有十亿多，但他们可不都是傻瓜。”

　　According to Israeli business magazine Globes, the tour operator said: “A group of eight Chinese on a tour of Abu Ghosh stopped to eat at the Abu Ghosh Restaurant. There may be a billion Chinese, but they may not all be suckers. These Chinese said they would not be back and would not recommend their friends to visit Israel.

　　据以色列商业杂志《环球报》报道，这家旅行社说，“8名到阿布.高什来游玩的的中国人在阿布.高什餐馆吃饭。中国人有十亿多，但他们可不都是傻瓜。这些中国游客说，他们不会再回来以色列，也不会再推荐他们的朋友参观以色列。”

　　“Naive customers are a very shaky basis for a business plan, and by behaving this way we are destroying with our own hands the budding potential of the Chinese market for Israel.”

　　“利用顾客的无知来达成商业目的是不可靠的，这家餐馆的做法是在亲手摧毁刚刚向以色列开放的中国游客市场”。

　　However, one of the restaurant’s owners, Jawdat Ibrahim, said the bill was justified and was a “realistic cost” for the meal.

　　然而，餐馆的所有者之一乔达特.易卜拉欣却说这张帐单是公正的，这顿饭确实值这么多钱。

　　He said: “I received a telephone call that a group of Chinese tourists wanted to come to the restaurant, on condition that we close the restaurant to all other diners.

　　他说，“我接到一个电话说有一个中国旅游团要来这儿，条件是我们不接待其他的客人。”

　　“We are talking about a Friday, and Friday and Saturday are the busiest days of the week for us. We have room for 300 people, and we closed it all for this group, which had the whole place to itself.”

　　“我们就定到了一个星期五。星期五和星期六通常是我们一周中生意最好的时候。我们的餐馆可以容纳300人，但我们只接待了中国的8人团，他们包下了整个餐馆。”

　　“They sat there from 3 pm on Friday until midnight, and became rowdy and drunk. They asked me to buy alcoholic drinks that I paid thousands of shekels for. They asked that the bar should be kept available, they asked for 30 kg of stuffed mutton and other dishes. It wasn’t a case of eating and leaving, and they even took all their leftovers with them afterwards.”

　　“他们从星期五下午3点一直呆到了凌晨，非常吵闹，还喝醉了。他们让我帮忙去买酒，我花了几千新锡克尔。他们要求我一直开着酒吧，他们还点了30公斤的酿羊肉以及其他的菜。他们不仅仅是吃饱了就走，他们离开时还打包带走了所有的东西。”

　　He added: “The truth is that I thought that they should pay much more, since I had no other diners that day. They enjoyed themselves and thanked me, and now, two weeks later, they’re trying to besmirch us. If you analyze the total, you will realize that it is not a lot for what they received.”

　　他补充说，“事实上我以为，他们应该付的更多。因为那天我没有接待其他的客人。他们玩得非常开心还感谢了我。现在，才过去了两周，他们就来诽谤我们。如果你分析下所有的东西，你就会发现，对于他们所享受的服务，这个帐单真的不算高。”

　　But his version of events is disputed by the Israeli tour company.

　　不过，据以色列旅行社称，老板的说法并不属实。

　　Israel Incoming Tour Operators Association chief executive Yossi Fattal told Globes the group arrived at the restaurant after 7pm and that the restaurant had not been closed especially for them.

　　以色列旅行社协会负责人Yossi Fattal告诉环球报，中国的8名游客是在晚上7点以后才去的，而且餐馆并非只接待他们。

　　He said they did have a private room, which they stayed in for just four hours and that there were also diners in other parts of the restaurant at the same time.

　　他说，确实给8人安排了一个包间，他们用餐花了4小时，同时，餐馆里也有别的客人。

　　In addition, he claims the alcohol was not specially ordered and had been placed on the table before the group arrived, and also that they had not been served 30kg of meat.

　　此外，他说这些酒水并非特别去购买的，而是在他们到达餐馆时就已经在餐桌上了，并且，他们并没有点30公斤的羊肉。

　　Mr Fattal said: “The Association decided to make this incident public in order to illustrate the importance of fair and polite treatment of tourists who come to Israel and are an important sector of the country’s economy.

　　Fattal说，“旅行社协会公布这个帐单，是想借此次事件说明公平礼貌对待游客的重要性。外国游客对以色列的经济相当重要。”

　　“Incoming tourism represents about 15% of total exports of services by the State of Israel, and is an important generator of employment in the periphery,” he added.

　　他补充说，“旅游业收入相当于其全国劳务输出收入的15%，同时旅游业对于创造就业机会也非常重要。”
