That's right.. there is no tipping in China! Or at least, there isn't in Hohhot (the bigger cities are more westernized, so there might be there.. haven't been there yet, so I am not sure). This means no tips at the restaurants, bars, taxis, etc! Apparently, if you try to tip them, they will refuse it and it could turn into some huge ordeal. Now, many of you might be thinking, "Does this mean the service is slow and rude?" No, not necessarily. The service is about the same as any place in the US (other than those people who are realllly good). And if you need something from the waiter, and they aren't paying attention? Well, simply yell across the restaurant of course!
