Zomato Introduces ‘Tips For Kitchen Staff,’ Internet Not Convinced

Zomato CEO Deepinder Goyal recently announced that the food delivery platform will allow users to leave tips for kitchen staff. Find out how people reacted to it online.

In certain eating establishments, it is common practice to leave tips for members of the staff. In restaurants that don’t levy a service charge, some people may choose to tip servers in cash. But what happens when you order food online? It seems that Zomato has found a way to bridge this gap. Recently, the company’s CEO, Deepinder Goyal, took to X (formerly Twitter) to introduce a new feature on the app: tips for kitchen staff. While the move may seem to have good intentions, people on the internet are not very convinced by its effectiveness. Find out more about it below.

Deepinder’s post read, “I’m super proud to introduce this new feature on the Zomato app – ‘Tips for Kitchen Staff’. Now you can show your appreciation for the chef and staff who helped cook your meal – and goes without saying, 100% of the tip amount goes to the restaurant partners for distribution among their staff.”
