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

[Penguin]

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.

They ate there for years and never left a tip? If I were them I would be much more worried about what I had actually eaten - could be that they had been served some specials with extra greetings from the kitchen crew...

Though I must admit, that Jim and Herr Berbunch look pretty convincing with their masks on, I nearly didn't recognize them...

well; honestly, seeing the way some people eat here in the USA...I can't say this is a bad thing

If you're going to claim "All you can eat", then you set the tone for the place, and can't complain that someone eats all they can, pigs or not.

For my stag party we went karting then to an all-you-can-eat chinese restaurant - I filled up too much and struggled for the next few hours trying to drink, my glutony put a bit of a downer on the day. By the time I felt better it was almost kicking-out time.

From just reading the headline, I could have sworn this was going to be about the Southern U.S.

This covers it. All you can eat is....all you can eat. If a guy is a bucket truck of stomach then expect to see the groceries disappear. The place should serve free hush puppies. Dump a bowl at every table. These things fill you fast!

Hey! I can assure you that Jim and I have never been to Brighton together, or even eaten a meal together. But if we did, 12 bowls of stir-fry would be nothing, nothing I tells ya.

Haha happened to vietnamese friend of mine a few years back, him and his mates were politely turfed out of a caribean buffet, because they out ate their welcome He said they even started eating some of the decorative fruit hanging on the walls - they were actaully given permission by the waiter to do this, but the manager was less than impressed. .

LOL

I've been to a few over the years and you invariably see one or two who could eat two more taties than a pg....I envy them because they're getting better value for their money than I am
