Every time I head stateside, I eat (albeit incredibly tasty) burgers as the only affordable thing on the menu until my cash gets so low I switch to Macdonald's. Tragic. Honestly no idea how most USians afford to eat. Who tf pays $30+ for a bowl of pasta? (That's usually the next cheapest thing on the menu.) Maybe it's different across states? Maybe USians don't tip? It would be more affordable if I wasn't including the tip. Haven't visited since I stopped eating meat so no idea what I'd do for food there now.
Nah, most people tip. You are seen as rude for not tipping most of the time. But there are more and more places requesting tips, so not everyone tips all the time, depends on the restaurant
