Restaurant Scams in Mui Ne

Seafood Restaurant Manipulated Weight Scam

Restaurants along Ham Tien Road and near Mui Ne fishing village display live seafood in tanks priced by weight per 100g or per kg. When the bill arrives, tourists are frequently charged for quantities significantly higher than the portion served, or the scale used at the counter is rigged. A serving that looks like 300g may be billed as 700g. Bills can reach 10 times what a local would expect to pay for the same meal.
