Tijuana Waiter: Where is my tip?!?
I took this photo in 1993 at Club A, Calle Revoluccion, Tijuana.

I think it's 'donde es mi propino'. They use esta for a state of being. Esta would be used for 'he is cold' or 'he is sad'.

Others can agree or disagree.

Donde esta mi propino. The wife says, "'Donde es' suena raro."

And I thought Spanish was an easy language?

Spanish is anything but easy. Just like English, there are variations that sometimes don't make sense. Practice, practice, practice...
