Share your Chinese buffet horror stories.

One time at an all you can eat buffet, I saw a person piling food so high on their plate that it was spilling over. Then, they took a few bites and left the rest. It was such a waste and made me feel really uncomfortable as there were others waiting for the food.

Food quality issues are common. For example, finding bugs or foreign objects in the food.

I've also heard of buffets where the utensils were dirty. Imagine picking up a fork or spoon and seeing food residue still on it. It makes you wonder how clean the rest of the buffet is and whether the kitchen follows proper hygiene procedures. This kind of situation can really put people off and make them avoid that buffet in the future.

I have a story about an all you can eat buffet at a hotel. They had a huge variety of food, from international cuisines to local favorites. The dessert section was to die for. There were cakes, puddings, and fresh fruits. I made sure to save room for dessert and sampled almost everything. It was a real treat for my taste buds.

One buffet horror story could be finding hair in the food. It's really disgusting and ruins the appetite immediately.

One horror story could be constantly dealing with rude customers. Some buffet workers have to face customers who are extremely demanding, like asking for special dishes not on the buffet line immediately. Another could be the huge mess left behind. People often scatter food everywhere, and buffet workers have to clean it all up, which is time - consuming and disgusting. Also, there might be issues with food shortages during peak hours, and the workers get blamed for it even though it's not entirely their fault.

There was this time I was in an old hotel. I was staying in a room on the top floor. In the middle of the night, I heard faint footsteps in the hallway. Then, the doorknob started to rattle as if someone was trying to get in. I called the front desk but no one answered. I pushed a chair against the door and sat there trembling until morning.

There was this instance where a buffet worker had to clean up after a group of children. The kids were running around the buffet area, knocking over plates, spilling drinks, and making a complete mess. The worker was already short - staffed that day, so it took a long time to clean up all the chaos. And the parents of the children didn't even bother to stop them or help clean up. It was a real nightmare for the buffet worker.

Once on the muni, I saw a huge rat running across the floor. It was so disgusting and everyone was screaming. The driver just kept driving as if nothing happened.

My Amex horror story involves their billing system. There were some incorrect charges on my bill. When I tried to dispute them, the process was so convoluted. I had to send in multiple documents and wait for weeks. And even after all that, the issue wasn't fully resolved and I ended up paying a bit more than I should have.
