Police called to disturbance at all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet after staff covered up desserts

Police in Manchester were called to a disturbance at an all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet caused when staff covered up the desserts.

Officers received a 999 call about a disturbance at Buffet City just before 11.30pm on Friday night. The caller said a customer, a 51-year-old man, was refusing to pay the bill because staff had covered up the desserts and he had not finished his meal.
The man, who was eating with a woman, had got into a heated row with door staff over the pudding concealment, so officers attended the scene within minutes to defuse the situation.

The parties were informed it was a civil matter. Greater Manchester Police later revealed that the man was eventually given a refund.
