Almost still newbies here - we are going on our second cruise in April and have a dining/tipping question. Currently we have a second seating for dinner which honestly won't work for us (our 8 DS will never make it that long waiting for dinner and neither will my DH or I). So if we don't really eat in the main dining rooms and eat mostly at Topsiders for dinner, how/when do you give waitstaff in Topsiders gratuities?
Having only gone on a 3 night cruise and had first seating, we ate every night in the main dining rooms and had the same waitstaff every night, tipping on the last night as usual. But at Topsiders will we have different waiters each night or is dinner just serve-yourselves? We only ate at the buffet for breakfast previously and honestly have no idea about dinner there.
Any help with this is appreciated.
