EDMONTON—A local chef and former restaurant owner is fed up with servers having to sacrifice their tips. Daniel Huber, known as theBurlyChef on Twitter, has launched a social media campaign to end house tipping to “non-working owners” — that is, the practice of servers paying a percentage of their earnings each day to owners who don’t double as staff. Huber is pushing for an end to the practice of “house tipping” to restaurant owners.

Huber said it’s hard for servers to speak out about house tipping for fear of losing their job, and Alberta labour board complaints can be time consuming.
