[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No tip! Please don't change the culture...tipping here is ridiculous (and yes I tip well, 20% at least and sometimes more) in Italy there's no line for you to add tip when you pay with a credit card.[/quote] We traveled a lot in Austria and Germany when we lived in Europe and there is also often not a "line" to add the tip but that's because the bill payment is handled differently. Basically you scan the bill when you get it and tell the server how much you want to pay (including the tip) when you hand them the money or your credit card. It is all together. Example - the bill is 32 euros and you say "35 please" when you hand them 40 euros . Server says "thank you" and gives you five back. If you don't tell them the final figure you want to pay including the tip, they will just give you the change (8 euros) but it's not usual to leave the tip on the table as it is in the US. [/quote]
