Perhaps "highlight" was the wrong word choice, but it is specifically called out on that menu example. I didn't read the full bill but I'm assuming since the required charge is fully visible, this restaurant would be fine (of course, as long as that required charge was also shown in any advertising that included prices).

FWIW, I think those kinds of "5% employee surcharge" fees are total bullshit and should be included in the price. The only reason "fees" should ever be pulled out separately are if they're optional, variable, or depend on something besides the unit cost on the product.

That's not my understanding. Charging a random fee that's not disclosed to the customer before they order is already illegal. The new law goes further: any random fees should be rolled into the advertised prices.
