Minsk Restaurant's All-You-Can-Eat Buffet Overwhelmed on Opening Day

Minsk Restaurant's All-You-Can-Eat Buffet Overwhelmed on Opening Day The launch of UMI restaurant in Minsk, Belarus, was met with unexpected challenges on its opening day. The all-you-can-eat buffet proved incredibly popular, leading to shortages of certain food items and considerable customer dissatisfaction. One video blogger, Kseniya Ivanvoskaya, described the scene: "People were taking ten shrimp at a time and not finishing them! They swept up the red fish in seconds." The incident highlights the delicate balance between offering generous portions and preventing waste. UMI's administration is now considering implementing a penalty system for customers who take more food than they can consume. This system, which could involve a small surcharge for uneaten portions, aims to ensure fairness and prevent future shortages. The blogger, Kseniya, expressed support for such a policy, stating, "I like the idea of a surcharge for uneaten food. Every 100 grams, maybe 5 rubles. That way, people will only take what they can eat."
