How do you account for price in that situation? When I choose what I’m going to order at a restaurant, it’s not simply based on what I think would taste best, it’s about the ratio of price to tastiness. Whenever a waiter recommends something, it’s almost always one of the most expensive items on the menu. In fact at this point I avoid recommendations because I assume waiters are simply trying to optimize for profit and not actually what I would enjoy eating.
You're at a recommended restaurant that you're assuming won't screw you but you're also not very price sensitive. So, you don't want this if you're optimizing around price.
