99: Some thoughts on tip culture, in France & beyond
Manage episode 335834724 series 2087559
There’s no guest for today’s episode. Instead, I wanted to talk about a topic I was recently asked to write about for Elle magazine in France. And that’s the subject of tipping and tip culture. Given that tourism across France is back in a big way and the French themselves are back to traveling beyond their borders, the question of if and how much to tip has resurfaced. Because my story was in French, I had some requests to discuss the theme in English. So here we go! I hope it helps as you travel.
Mentioned in this episode / Sources:
The history of tipping
The racist history behind America's tipping culture
Faut-il laisser un pourboire? Combien?
Danny Meyer ends his no-tipping policy
Minimum wage in France
The French tip only 5% when they travel
