I'm familiar with the addition of service charges at Miami Beach, and US practice elsewhere. I'm also familiar with the check being left open after the 18% has been added, just in case you don't notice and add more on yourself .....
Could someone please tell me where this "great service" that is so constantly referred to here on FT can be obtained anywhere in the USA nowadays, just so I can get the chance, when visiting, to experience it for once.
