    There is NO TIPPING after your meal. You may have really bad service, mediocre service, or service that might deem an award but no matter what the circumstance, don`t tip. No one does it here & it would probably make the server uncomfortable & at a loss of what to do or say to you.
    There is a 5% tax on food here when you eat in a restaurant. That`s the only extra charge that will be billed on your tab.
