Conversation 4

A : Thank you . Steven. That was the most magnificent meal I've had abroad. You'll have to let me reciprocate the next time you're in Beijing.

B : Don't worry about it , Lin. That's no big deal. You know, Americans appreciate China's rich culinary culture. Just excuse me for a second while I check the number here and figure out how much to give the waiter.(Examines the bill) Hmm, by the way, what do you do about tipping in China?

A : We don't .

B : No tipping? Now that's what I call a civilized system.

A : At hotels and some restaurants they add a service charge to the bill, but other than that , tipping isn't customary.

B : What about cab drivers and porters?

A : In a cab you just pay what it says on the meter. I generally tip hotel porters 10 yuan per bag, but in first-class hotels they're instructed not to accept gratuities.

B : You'd have a revolution on your hands if you tried to introduce that sort of system here.
