Would you eat at this restaurant?

A restaurant in London asked a man to leave because his face was scaring the customers. The restaurant hasn't been named yet, but I certainly wouldn't go there.

Abysmal behaviour from the restaurant and the people that complained. 😐

This is disgusting. Why are people so rude and insensitive?? They oughta be ashamed of themselves.
Love for this man and he can come dine with me any time he wants 🫂

@Tumbleweed Terribly ignorant
Tumbleweed · F
@Lugwho It makes me very sad.

They deserve to go into crippling debt and have to sell everything before being named and shamed.

@Illyria I think it might be a Ratners Prawn Sandwich moment, if anyone remembers that.

@Illyria Yes. Cheaper than an M&S Prawn Sandwich, and wouldn't last as long. The company crashed and eventually had to rename

Even if the people complained, the restaurant could have requested him to take a seat facing wall/corner, instead of asking him to leave. And they should also have tried to make other customers understand about problem he is facing.

@Lugwho That depends on age of the kid. We can't expect same from a 2 years old kid to not get scared.
Lugwho · 56-60, M
@ABCDEF7 That's not my experience. If my children were scared in a situation, I'd take them away from it.

@Lugwho Take them away?

Why would you not use that opportunity to educated them?

In a way you are supporting the move of restaurant. They just asked one person to move away from restaurant instead of many who complained.
Fibromatosis is a disgusting disease. some people just can't stomach that sort of thing. especially if they are eating.

I just don't understand why there wouldn't be some way of combatting the tumors at least cosmetically at this point in time. is it that expensive?

is it like those people with Hypertrichosis. I would imagine that is costly and painful to remove all that hair. But those people don't go around in diners either. unless they shave first. and i am not saying that as a joke.

@LILY61 "Some people can't stomach that sort of thing" - Well, that's THEIR problem then!
Ontheroad · M
Yeah, I'd never eat at a place like that... I don't do rude a$$ hurtful people.
Lugwho · 56-60, M
@Ontheroad Agreed

As someone who has facial scars, I am completely disgusted by this. I'm more disgusted by the patrons of the restaurant than the restaurant itself. I go by the philosophy, if you you don't like what I look like, then don't look at me. Children don't even act like these adults.

People might have been freaking out because they thought he had monkey pox.
Lugwho · 56-60, M
maybe customers complained and they didn't know what to do about it
Lugwho · 56-60, M
@LILY61 They could have suggested the people complaing left
@Lugwho yes, but you just don't know exactly what happened. i personally would have put him facing the person he was with and away from customers. so that everyone could just relax. but if i had the disease, i would not eat in a restaurant.

some people are too easily upset when they see someone like that. ( get nauseous too easily or they are too empathetic)
Hopefully they release the name and people stop going there.

@MarbleMarvel I'm sure it will come out

I have to make my own meals most times. Very few restaurants that can accommodate someone like me.

I might make an exception, get incredibly ill there and freak everyone out by having respiratory distress. Then leave a bad review on yelp never mentioning it is related to my own illness.
Lugwho · 56-60, M
@Miram Yelp reviews are generally to be treated with caution.
Miram · 31-35, F
@Lugwho How dare you attempt to sabotage my hypothetical plan to revenge this man?
Lugwho · 56-60, M
@Miram Sorry, I misunderstood. I'm onboard for this.

He seems to have multiple neurofibromatosis. A horrible condition, one of the worst. It's what the 'Elephant Man' had.
Lugwho · 56-60, M
@Bellatrix2024 Yes, horrible condition
Illyria · M
The only clue so far seems to be that the restaurant is in Camberwell, South London.
Fertilization · 36-40, F
No. I won’t bother to go for take-away either.
Lugwho · 56-60, M
@Fertilization I think most wouldn't
Donotfolowme · 51-55, F
Omg! That's outright inhuman
Lugwho · 56-60, M
@Donotfolowme It's shocking
