There is nothing more complicated than that about Americas tipping in restaurants.
In terms of grammar, could an English native tell me what the author thinks of Americas tipping?
Is tipping easy or complicated from the above-quoted sentence? |

It is easy.
It seems, from the text, that he has just said how tipping in the USA works. This is merely a comment about how simple the whole process is.
It is usual to tip around 15% in a decent restaurant for good service.
That's all there is to it. |
