HomeRead about a Chinese buffet in England where management banned 2 customers because they came in and each ate 5 plates of a certain item on display. Do you think all you can eat places should have restrictions or a cut off limit?

No. Then it's not "all you can eat".

No, absolutely not. "All you can eat" mean's "all you can eat". That Chinese buffet in England sounds like it's run by cheapskates.

Nope. All you can eat means all you can eat. Endless means endless. I can understand not letting people take it home but don't advertise yourself as something you don't wanna be.

As long as they don't try to purge while they're binging. Or drag their chair over to the buffet table. At least make them walk over from their dinner table. Maybe just change the promotion to "All a non-glutton can eat" or "All a normal person with some self control can eat".

No, not if its an all you can eat, its up to the restaurant to keep enough of each item for its customers.

Agree with the consensus. 'All you can eat' should mean just that.

"All you can eat" is self explanatory. If they want to limit it they should drop the "AYCE" for "3 trips to the buffet $11.50" or something. But not call it all you can eat.
