How To
Tip


info_icon

If you are paying, tilt the billfold away from your fellow diners and minus the taxes. From here, 10 per cent on the food and beverages is just polite, 15 per cent rounded off to the closest 100 shows you appreciated the service. But do read the fine print, SC actually means service charge, you might not want to tip twice.

Mind

An old chestnut. Two doors shielded by two guards, one a liar and the other truthful, and you don’t know which one is which. Behind one door is a famished tiger, behind the other, a ravishing princess or prince (as the case may be). You are allowed to ask any one of the guards one question of your choice. What would you ask to make sure you get the love of your life?

Answer
Ask any guard "What would the other guard say if I asked him which door leads to the princess/prince?" and choose the door not indicated in the answer.
