    Really interesting article and completely unsurprising that its Danny Meyer who is trying to make that sort of dramatic change...

    The disparity between cooks and waiters in pay makes it a pretty compelling piece and a good argument for why a change would be beneficial.

    FOCUS: Thoughts on the article? How would you feel paying a higher flat fee without a tip?

    Alt-Focus: What other ways could standard hospitality and service norms be changed in the US and Canada that you've seen abroad?
