As for the tipping, it's easy to sit at the bar all evening and not tip the bartender (since you are using a card). Generally, I just tip the 15-20% on the drinks that are on my bill at the end of the evening......or tip in cash when at the bar. You are correct in asserting that there is no need to tip for food service.Scott Carmackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12745110353724971166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6500281978394927923.post-23270133454654910402009-03-20T17:54:00.000+00:002009-03-20T17:54:00.000+00:00why would you tip on an entirely self-service expe...why would you tip on an entirely self-service experience? if you go during lunch, you face endless lines, crowded seating areas, and un-bussed tables. not to mention the ungodly din and uncomfortable chairs.<BR/><BR/>the vapiano setup might make splitting the check a snap, but i don't have much positive to say about the overall experience.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6500281978394927923.post-90432543706955208722009-03-20T13:21:00.000+00:002009-03-20T13:21:00.000+00:00It's a bit too trendy for me.

I think the chip card is a great idea. I've only been to the 18th and M location, but I think a branch recently opened in Chinatown and that there is one in Arlington (maybe Ballston). Looks like the Germans know a thing or two about making Italian food.JFohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09256531571259008009noreply@blogger.com
