Recognize your best customers and reap the benefits

It seems like articles and news are always focusing on negative serving experiences and rude customers, but there are plenty of well-mannered, respectful diners who are more than happy to follow polite restaurant etiquette and tip well. Don’t you think they deserve some recognition?
