Happy National Waiters and Waitresses Day!
One of the reasons I go out to eat at a sit-down restaurant is to get good service. At home, I am the chef, waitress, busser, dishwasher and more. So going out means getting the service I deserve.
While the food aspect is important, if I don't get good service, it's probably safe to say I will never return even if the food is extraordinary. If the food is so-so but the service is excellent, I will probably return.
With good service, you should always reward your waiter or waitress accordingly. They make less than minimum wage and tips are really what they live off of. If you don't know if you're tipping correctly, here are some tips that will come in handy when you go out to eat next time:

I shop online all day long with Savings.com, and occasionally I actually leave the house to buy things locally. But from Thanksgiving till Christmas I try to avoid the crowds at the stores as much as possible. And let's face it, there are plenty of people in this modern world who are not really friends or family members but who you feel compelled to get gifts for.

While William Shatner may spend his free time roasting Charlie Sheen, his alter ego is busy exploring strange new worlds and going where no man has gone before--at least in re-runs on TV.
Imagine Captain James T. Kirk of the USS Enterprise piercing through a wormhole into our galaxy, here and now. While missions of Starfleet are to explore new worlds, we are not new, just a part of their history. What would Captain Kirk do if he landed on earth today? Talk to President Obama? Check out N.A.S.A.?
Considering how much he loves romance (or women, more specifically), he might take a female officer out on a dinner date. Spock and Bones would attempt to stop Kirk from mixing with the local inhabitants, but the captain has a tendency to ignore Starfleet regulations.
Which present-day restaurant would Captain Kirk take a crewmember (or green woman--whomever is available...) on a dinner date?
