Haha.
Though not exactly enforceable by law, but I'd bet the custom of sharing portions with the kitchen was primarly borne out of courtesy. You know... Kinda like the custom of tipping.  |
That is far from what I meant. I don't mind tipping out to the kitchen. In fact, I often tip them more than I am required to because I'm thankful that they're making my job easier. So, no.
The kitchen deserves the tip. I just don't feel like I deserve to have my cash taken away from me to serve a customer.
Edit: It's never a large amount, mind you, but it's the principal of the matter.
