Haute Gastronomy in Westchester
explained how they got busy, briefly, from Clipper “coupon cutters” but they never came back. The food came out and it was, well, OK. Maybe, if they ever got into the Zagat guide, they’d be looking at a, oh, about 16 out of 30. So...

Is not tipping illegal?
do that, and on top of that give them anything from coupons for free entrees all the way up to comping the whole meal. If the manager refused to take off the charge, I would persist, first by reminding him that lots of people...
