It would be nice to know what a typical Mexican tips. Do they tip at all, 5%, 7%? we should base tipping on what they usually receive. We should not export the insane method and percentages of tipping we use here in the states. I personally think that tipping should never be based on the price of the meal, but an amount of your choosing based on what level of service you received. Pick a set amount per person being served.
A waitress serving breakfast works just as hard as a person serving dinner, but typically the price of the dinner is much much higher.
Betcha not many folks have viewed this matter from your very well taken point of view. The argument for basing a gratuity on the number served naturally follows from your premise. Well Done! :S
