Served: Why Tipping Makes Everyone Uncomfortable
At a restaurant this past New Year's Eve my wife and I ended up with a bill of about $200. We'd had a bit too much to drink and I was mathematically challenged and ended up tipping $20, though I'd meant to leave $40. I realized it the next morning, went to the restaurant and gave the manager $20 and asked that he make sure our server got it and an apology.
Not everyone thinks tipping is optional. Many of us do understand that it's how servers pay the rent, the electric bill, and the baby sitter.
Thanks for the work you do!

Umberto's is the best (worst?) kept secret in the North End. But just ask the local shopkeepers where they go for lunch and they'll tell you. My wife and I did just that one day and spent 30 minutes in line and enjoyed the best $7 lunch (including drinks!) ever: arancini, pizza, and calzone plus a soda. Heaven.
