Restaurant in Ha Long: price gouging after storm number 3 'minimum' 70-80k, netizens boycott?

While people are struggling to overcome the consequences of storm number 3 (storm Yagi), this clean rice restaurant is causing a stir for not accepting m.oney transfers, in addition to the fact that the dishes are only sold for a minimum of 70 - 80 thousand VND/meal.

Over the past few days, the online community in Quang Ninh has received tens of thousands of comments and shares calling for a boycott of a restaurant in Ha Long City. Specifically, in a shared post, a customer said that his group of 7 people went to the restaurant but the owner did not accept m.oney transfers and only sold high-priced meals.

Specifically, when talking between the customer and the restaurant owner, the owner shared: "During the storm and flood, people cannot transfer m.oney. You guys who run the restaurant must sympathize with them. We don't lack m.oney for food."

There was an argument between the two sides, the restaurant owner told the staff not to sell to the group of guests, then the group of 7 people also left. The poster was upset: "It's sad that a famous restaurant in Ha Long takes advantage of difficult days like this to increase prices... It's sad that I'm being looked down upon in my own homeland... Thinking back makes me sad."

Right below the post, netizens continuously left their frustrations and confusion about the way this famous restaurant works. Suffering heavy damage after storm No. 3, many Quang Ninh netizens think that this is the time to share instead of "rip off", so they called for a boycott of this restaurant.

Also on the morning of September 16, speaking to Cong Thuong newspaper, Mr. Dang Thai Ha - representative of Ba Lien Clean Rice restaurant (character in the shared video) said that the incident was a misunderstanding between the two sides and the facility's handling was not gentle and tactful. "We have a brand that is not small, to have that brand of course we have to understand normal behavior. If there is a problem, it could be due to the way of communication that makes customers misunderstand and be dissatisfied" , Mr. Ha affirmed and said that when there is a conclusion from the authorities, he will inform again.

Afterwards, Mrs. Lien's Clean Rice restaurant posted on social media that the group's reflection was not true. However, the restaurant's comments later caused even more backlash on social media. Many people expressed their anger about having to endure similar situations when eating at Mrs. Lien's Clean Rice restaurant chain during stormy days, when the electricity was out, and they could not cook at home.

According to some regular customers of this restaurant chain, the prices of meals during the storm increased quite high. Meanwhile, some restaurants that were heavily damaged in storm No. 3 organized thousands of free meals for people.

Account Huy Anh commented: "Honestly, when I ate a meal, I was so shocked by the price. I took a lot of rice, but the food was small, and the restaurant charged 95,000 VND/meal. On another day, I took the same amount and it was only 60,000 VND/meal. I don't know how to pay. Since then, I haven't dared to step into this restaurant again."

Another account also commented on the way the restaurant charged: "3 people came in for lunch for 3 plates of rice, but the restaurant charged 600,000 VND. So scary! Since then, I have boycotted this restaurant and never come back again."

Over the past few days, the online community in Quang Ninh has had tens of thousands of comments and shares calling for a boycott of this restaurant.

Speaking to the media, a representative of the Propaganda Department of the Ha Long City Party Committee said that the unit had assigned the Department of Culture - Information and the Ha Long City Police to investigate the above incident.

According to the document, in recent days, a number of electronic newspapers and social networks have posted many articles and clips with content related to the business establishment of Mrs. Lien's Clean Rice in dealing with customers. The posted content has created negative information and public opinion on social networks, especially in the context of storm No. 3 (Yagi) making landfall in Ha Long city, causing heavy damage to people and property, seriously affecting the lives of people and production and business activities in the city.
