[quote=APAULT,39976]In Australia we most often split the bill...equal shares like Chynagirl described. I agree that it is unfair on the frugal eaters, but so is the Chinese way of treating if you have equal turns. Actually, an all girls group in Australia will often be each pays her own. In China I follow the Chinese custom EXCEPT like LP says the senior person may be the one to pay. When I take Chinese friends out to dinner I normally insist on paying (though it can be hard to insist sometimes) because I am well paid compared with them. They can easily 'save face' if they feel it is necessary, by buying me an ice cream after we leave the restaurant.[/quote]
