Tips
Recently, the news about 春水堂 raising its prices sparked another discussion — why are customers still required to pay a service fee when they order using a QR code by themselves? In Taiwanese restaurants, paying a 10% service charge seems to have become an unwritten rule. Compared to Taiwan, the tipping culture in the U.S. is almost a part of daily life — whether it's taking a taxi, housekeeping, valet parking, and more — tipping is expected. It's not just tourists; even people who have lived there for a long time often find it confusing and overwhelming.

1. How is Taiwan’s service charge different from the tipping culture in Western countries?

2. Should service charges be considered a fixed fee, or should consumers have the right to choose whether to pay them?

3. To your knowledge, which countries have a tipping culture similar to the U.S.? What is the proper way to tip in those places?

4. If you encounter poor service, would you refuse to leave a tip?
