yup; all of my older relatives who were on fixed incomes loved buffet chains (yours in particular) and would always tip 15% on their meals

Just yesterday, for instance, I wrote some adorkable emails to coworkers that I spent all day on, and I felt like my creative juices were just flowing like boxed wine at book club.

Do you tip at dim sum? I would have thought yes but the dude from china I was eating with said no, and the person behind the counter crossed out the tip line on the credit card thing
― Dan I., Sunday, 21 April 2013 16:50 (eleven years ago) link
in general Chinese people are not used to tipping
― 乒乓, Sunday, 21 April 2013 16:56 (eleven years ago) link
only white people feel so entitled to give/receive tips

It felt so wrong not tipping when I was in HK. My brain just cannot compute.

how much would you tip on an $18 cocktail. asking for a friend
― 乒乓, Friday, 7 June 2013 20:07 (eleven years ago) link
I think it depends on the context, like if it's $18 cause the place is ripping you off or if it's $18 because it's some crazy drink that involves lots of preparation
― iatee, Friday, 7 June 2013 20:10 (eleven years ago) link
I would never pay $18 for a cocktail.
I would run out of the place and never go back.
― waterface, Friday, 7 June 2013 20:10 (eleven years ago) link
I always tip $1 per drink if ordering at the bar. This is partially to encourage establishments to avoid having $18 drinks.

Dear Jehovah what is this mess
like the notion i've got of your never having seen either of the first two coasts. or apparently not knowing what a blended haircut is. but thanks for your personal comments.

The United States borders on three oceans, btw.

I guess it's more of "the first two" coasts than anything else. Along with the raw vibe & attitude.
