But then shouldn't we tip 20% to the chef and not the person who brought the plate from the kitchen. I can see paying a flat fee for it for the server then.

Unfortunately, that's not the social norm. Yes, you can specify this money you left is for the back of house, but from what I've seen if you just leave money on the table/recipt the courts say you've implied that you left that for the "service" (the wait staff).
