How much to tip Today for lunch, a co-worker and I went to an Indian buffet. The waiter showed us to a table, brought water, and removed dishes as we went back to the buffet. Otherwise, we served ourselves, loaded up our plates and carried them back to the table.
How much % - wise should one tip in a situation like this. In a normal restaurant, assuming service is acceptable to good, I leave 15%, sometimes a bit more if it seems deserving.
But in a buffet situation, our discussion centered around how much is appropriate when you're not really being brought your food, or available to ask questions about the different ethnic dishes, etc.
Whatcha all think out there?
Thanks,
