The restaurant Papá Ché, located on Road 152 in Naranjito, Puerto Rico, has played a joke on its customers over the new charges it will apply following the recent increase in electricity bills. In a video posted on its social media, the restaurant said it would replicate the itemized breakdown used on the power bill, announcing an example total of $445.

Owner Luis Alvarado joked that "the lights have to be paid somehow." The gag was presented as a way to make light of the situation, "al mal tiempo, buena cara" (making the best of bad times), with a joke or two added in.
