Dutch term or phrase: Ze eten je arm, maar drinken je rijk.

Cari colleghi,

qualcuno mi aiuta con questo proverbio? Capisco bene il significato (nei ristoranti i guadagni veri si fanno con gli alcolici, non con il cibo), ma in italiano non mi viene niente di idiomatico. Voi come tradurreste?

Grazie e buona serata,
Francesca

Explanation:
ad es.
prendendo il vino come emblema delle bevande alcoliche

Non si tratta cmq di un proverbio, ma di un modo di dire specifico per i ristoranti
