Pair banned from all-you-can-eat restaurant for eating too much

George Dalmon, a former rugby player, and his friend Andy Miles were banned from all-you-can-eat restaurant, Gobi, In Brighton, after the manager branded them "a couple of pigs".

The men would each eat five bowls of stir-fry during their regular meals at the Mongolian barbecue, which invites guests to create their own dishes from the buffet.

Diners are told they can request meals "as many times as you wish" for £12.

"... then suddenly the owner came to our table in front of all the customers and went absolutely mental. He said we were a couple of pigs and we were banned for life. I couldn't believe it."

I can't believe it either. the owner should be sued.

HOWEVER, The manager, said: 'Basically these two guys just come in and pig out. I have put up with them for two years but have had enough.

'They spoil it for everyone else and are in such a hurry to get to the food so none of the other diners can get a look in.

'We are not a charity. We are a business. It is our restaurant and we can tell people not to come back if we want to.'

most of the mallu Cafeterias in Qatar provide unlimited rice & curry... for lunch & dinner but obviously there must be a limit to what one can eat within QR7

Sued for false advertising. Isn't that defrauding customers? Eat all you can is eat all you can..not eat all we say you can!

And yeah they should also be sued for sullying the reputation of these men. Pigs? Wow.. So much for customer is king huh? These guys are so so rude. Seriously no one should be eating at such places. They lack ethics to say the least!

Oregon authorities are investigating how a farmer was eaten by his hogs.

A family member found Garner's dentures and pieces of his body in the hog enclosure several hours later, but most of his remains had been consumed. :o(
