In europe and in Japan, there is no such thing as tip. Why? because you're paid to DO YOUR JOB. When eating out..do you NOT expect to receive good service? and at 15%..when combined w/tax...your paying 25% more for your meal.
A tip should be what it was, extra $ for superior service. If a waiter is always on top of getting your drinks and checking on your food etc... they deserve a couple extra bucks...but if a friend orders a $20 meal and I order a $100 meal..why do I owe $15 and my friend only $4...for the same service (the server didnt cook my meal).
There is an argument that waiters get most of their wages in tips..if it's unfair..quit. and if they do...and you don't get tipped enough to cover minimum wage, by law the employer must pay the difference up to min wage. and If that happens, you probably have poor customer service. There are plenty of jobs just as hard if not harder that never see tips: i.e. dish washers, retail, garbage men. Smile & do your job, or quit.

My boyfriend and I went to the Roadhouse Grill recently. Their "thing" is that there are buckets of peanuts on every table. However, there is no place to put the shells, so everyone just throws them on the floor. Also, it doesn't look like anyone sweeps the place often. This, to me, is disgusting. It's like they're asking for rats and roaches. I complained, and I got this response in an email: "Thank you for the information. You will probably always find peanuts on our floors, we tried putting out extra buckets but for most, that was the fun of Roadhouse Grill." I looked it up online, because that just seemed so odd to me, and the Roadhouse Grill isn't even the only restaurant that does this. What do you think? Does a floor full of peanut shells add charm to a restaurant, or does it gross you out as well?

This weekend I went out with some friends and yes i drank a little and over the weekend I looked at my online statement and I found that the waitress took like 5 dollars for a tip and the service was not that great. So to sum up this story can they do this and if they cant who can I alert about this overcharge? Right now its the principle of it.

Everytime I go eat at a local chinese restaurant from any place, ANYWHERE, I always wondered. The chicken in their entrees don't look anything like chicken meat. Why is their 'chicken' so soft and weird, smooth shapes?

With the possibility of acquiring diseases such as ecoli, do some folks still take this risk when they go out to eat? Just curious. Mooooooooooooo...hahaha.

I was thinking of ordering those M&M's and putting together love sayings inscribed on each M&M ? Going to Monteray Bay Aqaurium, then relax on the beach and then enjoy a nice dinner. Sound romantic ? We are both Oceanography buffs so I think the Monteray Bay Aquarium is a good Idea.

So I have to memorize the entire menu for Outback steakhouse word-for-word...Anyone that has worked there before have any tips/tricks/advice? Do they really count off if you leave off a non critical word (ie. served with A side / served with side)? Any ideas to boost my motivation? I'm on page 2 of 8 after 4 hours and exhausted...
