Who makes up the rules for tip amounts? Why not give 50%? A person should tip on quality of service. But the amount should be up to the person giving it.
Some cannot afford a larger tip. Some can and don't for many reasons. No one should judge others by the tip they leave. Yes, I agree the restaurants pay too little to the workers. But, that does not mean others must make up the difference.
The restaurant serves food, someone has to bring it to you.
I leave tips based on service not what someone demands I should leave. I find that many give very poor service in and around the villages but still expect big tips.
