Restaurants are a little different around here. The waitress will stand at your table till you are ready to order. Once you are done, they don't give you the check till you ask for it. They don't expect a tip unless you eat at a big fancy restaurant, then they automatically add 15% to the bill - even for 2 people. If you ask for a coke, they bring you the can & pour for you. There are ratings for the places from A being very clean & down. I've seen some places that should get a F, so they don't post their sign.

The number one rule - never look in the kitchen.
