Tony,
I was in a mountain restaurant in Meribel last year where they wouldn't give us tap water, and they had a cutting out of a newspaper pasted up saying the law had changed and they didn't have to provide free water (it was written in French but I think that was the gist of it).

This is what we received when we ordered a "glass" of white wine at Hanggis Restaurant in Davos.
Cheapest wine on the list at around 8CHF and they couldn't be arsed to even half fill it. We estimated it to be about 100ml. We call it being "Switzerlanded".
The week before in Champoluc we were getting a 500ml carafe for less and quality was just as good.
In Australia the glasses have a line on the glass at 326ml and woe betide any place that short serves you.

I find it ironic that water is 3 euros and a demi is 2.50 euros on the slopes in PDS. Evian is just down the road and mountain spring water comes out of the tap!
its all going rapidly downhill!

Isn't it a legality to offer customers tap water if they ask for it?
