Sorry! My post went over your head.
Lunch (special) there
is $5.95 I have been there with more than one neighbor who tried to get it without buying a beverage. Electing to order a water with extra lemon and then putting a few sweet 'n lows in. I remember once a server put his amount on my tab. When she handed it to me she said " You understand what I did.... don't you?" After thinking for 5 seconds I said I did. I said to the guy next to me that was all happy thinking she forgot to charge him "Give me $8.00" He was not a happy camper and also told me I was making his tip too large. He was so upset he wanted his own check til I explained it all to him. And NO - I don't do lunch with him any more!
As for your question on tipping..... can't remember the last time I tipped 20%. ALWAYS tip more.... tended bar part time for a long time. The absolute worst was in The Villages!
I figure I averaged about 12% and then had to tip out the Host and Busser on any tables I did in the bar area.
You forgot the tax in your figure......
