Reasonable to fine diners for taking too much food at a buffet or not?


Recommended Posts

Years ago, I encountered this policy in many Brazilian buffet restauants. Now, Buenos  Aires  has caught on. It's probably iin effect other cities, although  I can oly think of places that have different  diffesent prices depending on the size of the salad plate..

The  concept is to charge by the weight of the plate of food.  No all you can eat. You pay for the amount of food that you  want to eat.

Simple. Case closed.

Imagine if this meal was not a buffet. Would the patrons have taken/ordered so much food and left it to waste? Of course not.

On the other hand the owner wouldn't have minded the waste since he/she would have been paid for it.

One bad apple doesn't spoil the basket full but after years of going out 2x/week with 6 friends to every buffet in Chiang Mai we have called it quits because of such incidents created by Thais and Chinese. Our preference is to take our 2-3 hours of socializing while eating to non-buffet restaurants. 

 

How refreshing and rewarding!

 

Scum and scruff can have at it at the buffet tables.
