A few days ago, I wrote about an undercover investigation in Paris, to see how Americans are ripped off at restaurants compared to locals.
I found the findings there to be fascinating, and one of those is that service was “included” for the person posing as a local, but not for the person posing as an American. When the American decided to tip 10%, the server increased that amount to 15%, seemingly thinking that wasn’t sufficient.
Tipping is always a hot button topic, and I’d like to address that more broadly. Yes, us Americans are the “worst” when it comes to this, but honestly, this is anything but straightforward.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
