How 'bout the encargado in the building where I live ???
In NYC is very common to tip the Super / doorman at the end of the year.
Is that OK here or am I going to look like a rube ???

it;s common in argentina, along the (in my opinion very annoying) tradition of patron-servant. people who tip their encargado yearly eventually "buy" trust from the encargado and can actually count on him, but of course there's a bit of luck involved.
but yes it's common and even expected.

And don't tip in dollars (the owners will keep those), please tip in pesos.

... we split the tips equally amongst not just the servers, but also the cooks (6-7), those washing & polishing dishware (2), & the owners (3) ...

Call me a socialist, but IMO the only owners who ought to qualify for a cut of the tips are those who've already implemented profit sharing.
