2.FOOD CULTURE
-
OCCASION:
In Britain, going out for a meal is almost always done to mark an occasion: a birthday, a reunion, an anniversary.
But in America, it can be done just because you haven’t yet tried Chili’s new Awesome Avocado Bacon Milkshake Sugar Burger!

ENTERPRISE CULTURE
America company think the creative is the most important, while British pay more attention to the sense of hierarchy. And American likes competing, while British people hate it These may cause different cultures.
-
Tipping
This is probably the biggest and most obvious difference. First-time British visitors to America never fail to be completely flummoxed by the custom of tipping. They feel cheated by it. But what they don’t realize is that a lot of American wait staff don’t get paid an hourly wage and are reliant solely on tips for income. Problems arise in the U.S. if the service happens to be below par; Brits feel like they shouldn’t leave any gratuity for poor service, but really they’re just being cheap so they can spend their dollars on cheap Levi’s.
-
Water
The first thing that happens when you sit down in an American restaurant is that you’re asked if you’d like bottled or tap water. If you choose bottled, you’ll then be asked whether you’d prefer still or sparkling. A moment later your water of choice appears on the table. In Britain, water must be apologetically requested from your server.
