"The partial reopening of NYC indoor dining may be coming with a side dish of extra fees.

The NYC Council is set to vote on a bill Wednesday that would institute a 10 percent surcharge on diners' total bills to help financially-strapped restaurants hard hit by the coronavirus pandemic. Saru Jayaraman, president of the advocacy group One Fair Wage, said the bill also does not require that restaurant owners share the surcharge proceeds with its employees."
