I see a 10% service charge on my bill. Do I need to add extra?

The service charge usually covers the staff. Tipping is not mandatory. If the service was exceptional, leaving 200-500 LKR for the waiter is appreciated, but absolutely not expected.

Good to know, I won't feel guilty about not adding extra.
