Eating out.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Dining out is expensive, so it's often a long, social event. Don't expect the bill to come immediately after you finish eating; you often have to ask for it. In contrast to Norway, US restaurants often 'turn tables' quickly. Being 'på restaurant' in the US feels more like a transaction than a 3-hour social event. The origin of the word 'restaurant'. The culture of 'å være på restaurant' is deeply ingrained in daily life, often more so than in Norway. Tipping is non-existent and can even be seen as rude. When you are 'på restaurant' in Japan, the service is included in the price and the experience.
The 'På' Rule
Memorize 'på' for all entertainment venues: på kino, på teater, på restaurant, på konsert.
Don't over-tip
In Norway, being 'på restaurant' doesn't require heavy tipping. 5-10% is plenty.
