Eating out is one of the joys when traveling. So, how to dine out in a restaurant Here are some tips for you: Background Information Choosing a Restaurant Some restaurants are open for breakfast, others are open twenty-four hours a day. A number of restaurants call themselves “family restaurants”. Many of these serve no alcohol and have fairly restricted menus which include steaks, hamburgers, omelettes and sandwiches, and all are at very reasonable prices. Background Information Reserving a Table It is often necessary to make a reservation. Otherwise you will see long queues of people in rush hours. Many restaurants have a no-smoking section. Background Information Arriving at Restaurant (Bar) When you arrive at a restaurant (bar), usually you will have to wait for a “hostess” or “captain” to escort you to a table. When your waiter or waitress takes your order, it is not very normal for one person to order for the whole table. Each person orders separately, except in the most expensive restaurants. Background Information Summoning a waiter You may find your waiter unusually friendly. To summon a waiter in a American restaurant you may call “Bill”, “Mary”, “Claude”, or whatever. Waiters and waitresses often actually introduce themselves when they first come to your table or wear name tags, you are permitted to use their first names. Background Information Paying the Bill The bill (also called “check”) comes usually with added tax but no service charge--though some restaurant do now add a service charge. The etiquette books say that you should leave a 10% tip for lunch, 15% for dinner. The tip should be calculated on the basis of the total before the addition of tax. At many restaurants you can ask the waiter to bring the bill and then pay at a cash desk on the way out.
