In a sweeping change to how most of its 1,800 employees are paid, the Union Square Hospitality Group will eliminate tipping at Union Square Cafe and its 12 other restaurants by the end of next year, the company’s chief executive, Danny Meyer, said on Wednesday. The move will affect New York City businesses. The first will be the Modern, inside the Museum of Modern Art, starting next month. The others will gradually follow.
A small number of restaurants around the country have reduced or eliminated tipping in the last several years. Some put a surcharge on the bill, allowing the restaurants to set the pay for all their employees. Others, including Bruno Pizza, a new restaurant in the East Village, factor the cost of an hourly wage for servers into their menu prices. Union Square Hospitality Group will do the latter.
The Modern will be the pilot restaurant, Mr. Meyer said, because its chef, Abram Bissell, has been agitating for higher pay to attract skilled cooks. The average hourly wage for kitchen employees at the restaurant is expected to rise to $15.25 from $11.75. Mr. Meyer said that restaurants such as his needed to stay competitive as the state moved to a $15 minimum wage for fast-food workers. If cooks’ wages do not keep pace with the cost of living, he said, "it’s not going to be sustainable to attract the culinary talent that the city needs to keep its edge." Mr. Meyer said he hoped to be able to raise pay for junior dining room managers and for cooks, dishwashers and other kitchen workers.
The wage gap is one of several issues cited by restaurateurs who have deleted the tip line from checks. Some believe it is unfair for servers’ pay to be affected by factors that have nothing to do with performance. A rash of class-action lawsuits over tipping irregularities, many of which have been settled for millions of dollars, is a mounting worry.
Scott Rosenberg, an owner of Sushi Yasuda in Manhattan, said in an interview in 2013 that he had e-liminated tipping so his restaurant could more closely follow the customs of Japan, where tipping is rare. He said he also hoped his customers would enjoy leaving the table without having to solve a math problem.
While Drew Nieporent, who owns nine restaurants in New York City and one in London, said he doubted the average diner would accept an increase in prices. "Tipping is a way of life in this country," he said. "It may not be the perfect system, but it’ s our system. It’ s an American system."
According to the first paragraph,what would happen in New York City?
选项
A、1,800 employees of the Union Square Hospitality Group will be paid as much as before.
B、Tips in 13 restaurants of the Union Square Hospitality Group will be removed.
C、All the business will be affected by Danny Meyer’ s action and eliminate tipping.
D、There will be a new tipping system in the Modern, inside the Museum of Modern Art.
答案
B
解析
细节题。根据题干关键词定位到第一段。根据该段第一句中的the Union Square Hospitality Group will eliminate tipping at Union Square Cafe and its 12 other restaurants可知,联合广场餐饮集 团将取消联合广场咖啡馆和旗下另外12家餐馆的小费,共取消13家餐馆的小费。由此可知B项 “联合广场餐饮集团的13家餐馆的小费将被取消”为正确答案,A项“联合广场餐饮集团的1800名 员工获得的酬劳将与以前一样”与文中的In a sweeping change“为了彻底改变”不符。C项的All太 绝对了,文中主要指餐饮业受影响。原文说的是下个月将开始取消小费,并不是制定一个新的小费 制度,所以D项不符,故排除。
