| Hey, good question.
I've often wondered that myself. I think it's the 10% service charge that makes me not tip if that's included. But then, does that (and anything extra you leave) really go to the wait-staff?
I'm also not sure if I'll ever get used to having an unncessary large number of coins served as change on a platter. I mean, I realise they provide more coins than required to 'encourage' me to leave those coins behind. But I hate the way, for example, a $50 or $55 beer ends up costing $70. Even though it's annoying, I just usually leave those coins so as not to appear like a tight arse. In this example, the beer in HK is already very pricey. |
