Other than the chefs who made the food and the person who greets you and shows you to your table, the rest of the establishment couldn't care less about you. <br /><br />More to the point that you're making,even though this happened to you in Austria, would you do the same if it was in the UK?Threelighthttp://www.threelightsnews.com/reduxnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1750120863647373520.post-50725718659010602182012-02-01T06:50:55.231+00:002012-02-01T06:50:55.231+00:00You did the right thing, without a doubt.You did the right thing, without a doubt.Mary Mennengahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10617477616671827033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1750120863647373520.post-23264837610219887982012-02-01T06:39:51.456+00:002012-02-01T06:39:51.456+00:00I would have probably done the same, or at best op...I would have probably done the same, or at best openly paid up before we left the restaurant.<br /><br />The real question is, what would have happened if the food had been terrible, the service awful and the wine rubbish? Would you still have corrected the mistake? <br /><br />I'm not so sure I would be committed to doing the right thing in that situation.Cruciferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13930468654741891322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1750120863647373520.post-28307394247452401902012-01-31T23:48:12.485+00:002012-01-31T23:48:12.485+00:00Actually, I end up doing this quite a bit.

I excuse myself to go to the bathroom, find our server and giver him/her the tip with the same explanation. You did the right thing, but you sound like an extraordinarily poor liar. Not that that's a bad thing...Persephonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15560178981320189795noreply@blogger.com
