When the blogger was dining at a Chuan Chuan Xiang restaurant in Huizhou, Guangdong, he discovered that he was charged an extra fee for using bamboo sticks when checking out.
The blogger said that skewers are sold by the skewer, and he originally thought that the price of a skewer listed by the store included the cost of food and bamboo sticks.
However, the store claimed that the ingredient fee was charged separately, and the bamboo stick usage fee was not informed to him in advance, which made him feel like a hidden consumption.
In addition to the bamboo stick usage fee, bloggers were also charged other fees such as paper towel fees, tea table fees, and seasoning fees.
He said that he was charged four or five fees as soon as he sat down, and the paper towels and tea were not used.
When the blogger raised questions, the service staff said they would discuss it with the boss, but did not give any explanation afterwards.
So, the blogger took the collected evidence - those bamboo sticks - to the local market supervision and administration bureau to lodge a complaint.
The store involved responded that it was using disposable bamboo sticks and had previously charged 1 yuan per person for the use of bamboo sticks.
Now the store has made rectifications and decided not to charge customers for bamboo sticks.
