I always saw tipping mostly as a way to avoid dealing with change, so now that I pay with card almost everywhere and change is no longer relevant, I like to round it up to neat numbers like 333 or 456 to make it tiny bit easier to enter on the terminal.
service was OK - round up to 30€
service was good - give 2€ extra
service was exceptional - give 5€ extra
(doesn’t scale with the price of the food)
Pay exactly €29,75 and guard the receipt with your life, or you’re in trouble.
