I'm sure this is a perennial topic.
My plan is to talk it over with the server when we get seated. "Our son will likely eat little to nothing. Let us buy his drink, then as far as the meal goes, would you mind just letting us 'wing it', and if it looks fair to you, then charge us for his meal - and if he barely eats anything, then let it go?"
My question to the community is: What have you done in this situation? Fair is fair, but I don't want to throw away any more $$ than I absolutely have to.
I'm guessing that, as in most situations, the presentation is more than half the "battle."
Thanks.
