For example, publicize your preferred convention, and then give your business to restaurants that decide to satisfy the demand for that convention. If people don't flock to those restaurants, then maybe that wasn't a viable cultural change. Or maybe the objection wasn't impassioned philosophical position on the optimal economic model, but rather that they simply wanted to pay less, and blaming a questionable custom was a convenient loophole.
