January 2nd: A Reflection on Respect & Gratitude At the start of the New Year, I dined at Ichi-Bon Sushi & witnessed something that moved me to speak out. It was a busy mealtime, & the restaurant was bustling. Amid the activity, I noticed two elderly individuals, both in their 70s, tirelessly attending to customers. Later, I learned they were the owners. These two worked with smiles on their faces, providing attentive & thoughtful service-refilling drinks & patiently addressing every request without a single complaint. They clearly poured their hearts into ensuring every guest felt comfortable & cared for. However, one gentleman chose to leave no tip when settling the bill. While tipping is not mandatory in Canada, it is a basic acknowledgment of & gratitude for the hard work of service staff-especially for individuals like this elderly couple. They not only provided excellent service but also extended warmth, patience, & kindness. Yet, this gentleman's decision seemed to diminish their efforts, as though their hard work was insignificant. Perhaps he believed paying the bill was enough, but have you ever considered the physical & emotional toll on a couple in their 70s, working hard every day to meet the needs of their customers? Their tireless dedication surely deserves at least a small token of appreciation & respect. The few dollars saved might have felt negligible to him, but for this couple, it could have meant recognition for their labor & a small but meaningful source of encouragement. I hope this gentleman will reflect on his actions that day. In this world, we all need mutual respect & kindness. A tip is more than just money-it is a gesture of gratitude & support for those who work hard to serve us. In the future, wherever you go, I urge you to choose a kinder & more considerate approach toward those who serve you. I witnessed the entire incident, & this gentleman adamantly refused to leave a tip in any form. Let us remember that a little kindness goes a long way, & gratitude costs nothing but means everything.Voir plus

Service was fine, sushi was warm, & they were rude when my friend mistakenly forgot to pay their tip & was immediately met with unkind words. I added their portion of their tip to mine because we are people who always tip, but honestly, with how mediocre the food & service was, I don't think it would've been unfounded to skip the tip.Voir plus
