Too late to do an edit but let me add, our only frustration this trip was once again over the addition and then, in one or two cases, what I believe was the intentional misrepresentation of the much discussed service charge in some of the restaurants we frequented on the Dutch side.

I am a true and firm believer in that menu prices SHOULD reflect the true cost of the meal. If the restaurant management can’t figure out what that is, perhaps they’re in the wrong business but again, purely MY OPINION - the addition of any service charge is wrong and all too often, hurts the dedicated server in the long run.

If left to our own devices we generally tip at least twenty percent but when a s/c is added to the bill we view that as a mandatory tip and we're done.
