Are your eyes bigger than your stomach? Do you like to order more food than you can eat and then don’t feel guilty about wasting it later? If this is you, then you can now get fined for this habit.
Gulou Hotspot in Al Barsha adds Dhs 50 to the bill of diners who leave leftovers on their plate, which we think is a great way to reduce food wastage.
The restaurant offers a hotpot deal for Dhs 49 which includes unlimited food and drink, including meat, fish, tofu, vegetables, noodles and dessert for two hours.
These kind of deals generally prompt diners to order more than they can eat and results in plates still piled with food that will not be eaten. Now this idea will make sure that what is put on the plate is actually eaten and most likely stop people going for more that they don't really want, or get fined for wasting the food.
