I'm meeting my boyfriend's parents on Friday.

What's new and/or interesting in Philly theaters this weekend.

PhilaFoodie tips us to the fact that at least one Philly restaurant may be charging 20% gratuity on all checks, regardless of party size. Personally, I have mixed feelings about tipping. I've done my time waiting tables, so I know the importance of tips as a supplement to a server's salary. As such, I try to be a generous tipper (15 - 20% for good service, perhaps slightly more if service goes above and beyond, or if I'm with a large and/or feisty group of diners). But what to do about bad service? I've seen people leave no tip - and I was once told by a waitress that the best way to comment on poor service is to leave the server a penny as a tip. This, apparently, let's them know that you neither forgot the tip, nor are simply cheap, but that you felt their service was inadequate.
