Popular Post webfact Posted November 30, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 30, 2020 Hua Hin: Beach restaurant fined 1,000 baht for menu violation Picture: Sanook A restaurant on Sai Noi beach was fined 1,000 baht for not serving dishes as per the pictures on the menu. A customer had gone online to complain about their 70 baht "khao phat krapao" with squid and prawns. It only had three pieces of squid and one prawn and there was no fried egg on top. The local authority found that the item on the menu was listed at 60 baht including one of several toppings. The customer ordered two toppings but this was not stipulated as being 70 baht in the menu. A 180 baht plate of "wun sen yam talee" (seafood salad with vermicelli) was found not to have been in contravention of the rules.

Menu violations have long been a vile, unconscionable, scourge on the good reputation of Thailand. Encouraging to see the regime has its priorities in order. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post colinneil Posted December 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 1, 2020 Shocking, how on earth would anybody ever go to that restaurant, such a diabolical thing not serving food as per picture. Almost every restaurant anywhere in the world is guilty of doing the same. Pity the officials have nothing more constructive to spend their time on. 7 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 A government agency stepping in and playing consumer advocate? Is this something new? This was a local agency, part of the Hua Hin administration. It must have been. I cannot imagine the Prayuth regime ever doing anything to benefit the average consumer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strangely enough though, when eating at Burger King here in Thailand, the burgers actually do look like the pictures whereas back in the US, every Whopper looks like it was smooshed on purpose before serving it.
