You know in Europe service, around 10-15%, is automatically added to all the restaurant bills.

If you want to leave more, you leave maybe 5%, il resto, plus or minus, when you leave the restaurant.

I can live with that.

Maybe I'm being too picky, but if folks are going to charge a service fee, they should call it that--a "service fee"--rather than a "tip"!

For the record, I usually tip 15 - 30% depending on the server(s). :-)
