If the Buffet is “all you can eat” that is what it is.
These guys should sue and should be awarded free meals for a
year…that’ll put y’all out of business.
HOUMA, La. — A 6-foot-3, 265-pound man says a restaurant overcharged him for his trips to the buffet line, then banned him and a relative because they’re hearty eaters.A spokesman for the restaurant denies the claim.
Ricky Labit, a disabled offshore worker, said he had been a regular for eight months at the Manchuria Restaurant in Houma, eating there as often as three times a week.
On his most recent visit, he said, a waitress gave him and his wife’s cousin, 44-year-old Michael Borrelli, a bill for $46.40, roughly double the buffet price for two adults.
“She says, ‘Y’all fat, and y’all eat too much,”‘ Labit said. Source: Fox

What part of "all you can eat" did the staff not understand? In the grand scheme off things, the large-scale eater will be cancelled out by the light eater... unless the restaurant shoots itself in the foot by scaring away both buffet archetypes.
