In The Netherlands, Stairs Are Usually Very Steep And Narrow
To some foreigners, staircases in the Netherlands might look more like a health risk than anything. Historically, the buildings were built up rather than out, saving all the centimeters possible.

The swedes get cred for using the cheese slicer? Norwegians DID invent it!

#16 : it's not exactly "in Italy". It's "everywhere in the world, except usa". The rest of the world thinks it's normal do give a decent wage to waiters, and it is fair to display the real price customer will have to pay. Still you can tip, if you want, it the really reward good waiters.
But in a way it is true, they do that in Italy.

so serious about their cheese?
Wth, how do you get thin enough slices with a knife...with thick slices the taste overpowers everything else.
oh and there are several types of cheese slicers...some are full metal plates with a cutting edge as in the picture, others are a very thin piece of metal string attatched at each end to a piece of wood

Gerrie,
In the States a waiter gets 2 or 3 dollars an hour. Try to find someone who will do it in Europe. They get a decent wage, so, my opinion is you are wrong (or a waiter who want's to have some extra money from tha American 'idiot's).

Gerrie, in any developed country the waiter is paid properly to do their job. A tip is something you pay extra to show your appreciation in the service or food. And if the service fee go to the ponwe, so what? The services are paid for by the owner, to that's only fair.

#16 is as stupid as the obrigation to tip in the usa. "Coperto" is not a tip! Is a fee to help pay for rent, plates, cups, forks, etc.... that should be the owner responsability, so for my point of view is a scam, a legal scam, but still a scam...
In the usa you are obligated to leave a tip because the owner don't pay enough to the employers, you cannot explain this to an european because we don't understand that......
In the rest of europe everything is included in the price of the dish, if you wan to leave some tip for the good food/service, etc... its ok, but the wages, rent, every cost is already in the price of the item you purchase
