That's like a restaurant, with no prices on the menu.

"If you have to ask..."

I would definitely like to never have to talk to another "people person," and no-calls-but-we'll-give-you-the-info-you-need policy sounds great.

You mean a restaurant that gets away with serving mediocre food for ridiculous prices, because the "no prices on the menu" gimmick generates enough status/prestige to compensate for any customer dissatisfaction? I.e. the restaurant equivalent of being famous for being famous.

Wouldn't know. I generally avoid those joints.

My tastes are a lot more plebeian.

Unfortunately, I have to eat in one, every now and then, but I always walk away disappointed.

Indeed.
