Food in Fiction: Reservoir Dogs

"I don't tip because society says I have to. All right, I mean, I'll tip if someone really deserves a tip, if they really put forth an effort, I'll give them something extra. But this tipping automatically, it's for the birds. As far as I'm concerned, they're just doing their job."

Mr. Pink (Steven Buscemi)

Reservoir Dogs (1992)
Written and directed by Quentin Tarantino
