In order to attract customers, a new chain of bars along Spain’s Catalonian coast plans to offer something extra with each 1,000-peseta (US$7) drink: a French kiss.

Further, customers will be handcuffed first “make sure their hands do not wander.” (AFP) ...Nice touch: in most places, the handcuffs would be extra.
