Advice for ordering in a restaurant

• don't hesitate to ask the server a question about the menu
• be sure that the server underestands your order
• don't hesitate to refuse a wrong order
• leave a tip in countries that have a tipping custom. The customary amount is different for different countries. Check your guide book.
