[quote=TRAVELLERMIKE,245823]Hi Linzi, I do not think you will find the same expectation of tipping in China as you may in other western countries, and long may it remain so! I remember when I asked the teacher who was showing my wife and I around Hanzhou whether I should leave a tip at a restaurant we visited, her comment was that the staff would be pleasantly relieved not to be asked for a discount (not that the food was anything but good... just that the concept of tipping was alien). If you have a wish to reward good service it maybe better to find some other means of acknowledgement (repeat custom or recommendation may go further). I am not an expert however, and you will undoubtedly get many other responses to your interesting thread. Enjoy your trip. [/quote]
