Lucky for the title because it doesn't much convey the feeling of a restaurant. The uniform baaarely gives it away. Looks like he's saying "Thee cheap bastard with thee camera only left two lousy bucks for a teeep...". Received score it deserved.
It's an interesting photo, in an offbeat way. But I find no connection to the challenge. Maybe if you had shown him holding some food instead of cash... !
Interesting image, and his tie is wonderful, but for the challenge it would have helped this viewer if some food were visible...the fact that it is a restaurant is not abundantly clear
Cute candid. I like the smell of mexican food! Wish the focus were a bit sharper on the man, but I like how he is in relation to his colorful surroundings. His white shirt is a bit bright - details washed out.
What did the romans say ? Pecunia non olet, money does not stink. Is that why you photographed the money and not the mexican food ? Image could have been stronger by some more cropping, e.g. removing the bottle, concentrating more of the man counting his money.
