Solo diners pay 1,000 won more 😱😱... 'Debate' on the restaurant menu prices

This is a notice stating that an additional 1,000 won will be charged for single servings. The restaurant owner originally only sold portions for two or more people but attached this notice in response to customer requests. <Photo = JTBC 'Incident Manager'>

 

Next to the menu on the restaurant wall, there is a sign that says, "An additional 1,000 won will be charged for customers who order only one serving." This means they will charge a small extra fee to customers who are eating alone.

 

It was reported yesterday (the 19th) through JTBC's 〈Incident Manager〉 that someone stopped by a restaurant with acquaintances and saw this notice.

 

The informant took a photo of this and posted it on social media (SNS), and there were opinions such as, "If you serve one customer and the side dishes go out as they are, there wouldn't be any leftovers," and "It's nice because you can eat alone without feeling self-conscious."

 

There were also counterarguments such as "Wouldn't it be better to offer a discount if you order more than two servings?" and "Solo diners might feel offended."

 

The owner of the restaurant explained on "Sageonbanjang" that "originally, we only sold portions for two or more people and did not sell single servings," and "however, customers coming alone asked if we could sell a single portion for an extra 1,000 won, even if it meant charging a bit more, like the cost of side dishes." He added that after attaching a notice, the 'solo dining' customers responded that they actually felt more comfortable.

Anyway, just looking at the phrase, it's shocking 😱😱.

Provide a more service-oriented and gentle approach for solo diners.

It seems like a strategy was needed~ when eating alone.

Is it really that restaurant?🤔🤔
