a tip

Two notes about restaurants in New Zealand:
1. You don't tip. I haven't tipped anyone in a year. I haven't missed it.
2. They never bring a bill to your table. Every restaurant I've been in has a register by the door. When you're ready to leave, you get up, go to the register, and they find your bill. This threw me a couple time. Also, if you're dividing the bill, sometimes it's nice to have it at the table. But they're always willing to do it at the register, ringing it up person by person.
