At least the waiter walked away with an incredible R11,450 cash tip…
For many South Africans, going out for dinner is a treat that only comes now and then or on special occasions.
Even then, we might opt to be a little more frugal and not order the most expensive items on the menu.

However, this is not the case for everyone.

Including the waiter's tip of R11,452.80, the bill totalled a whopping R125,969.80.
The receipt, which entertainment blogger Musa Khawula shared on X, showed that the patron settled his bill at 4am on Monday morning at Rockets Club in Umhlanga Rocks.
