Mind you that fifty cents isn't very much money in today's world but honesty and doing business in an upfront way is. Today I was quoted one price for a to go container of food and told, before I filled it, that I could mix items and whatever I got in the container would cost $2.00 (based on the size of container I chose). After I filled it though I was charged another price because I mixed items in the container and didn't just fill it with one item. This was after I specifically ask, to the very employee that priced the items and told me I could mix them at no extra cost.
Her reason for charging more was she said you could only mix at no extra cost in the largest container but even though I held the smaller container up, right in front of her face, and she said you could mix items at the one price she changed the price at the register.
I don't plan on returning and encourage anyone reading this to just beware that their prices change from what they quote you and on this day did not do a very honest business. It wasn't that much money but it's more the principal of when you are told something, to your face then you expect the business to follow through on their word. Even when I explained that I held the very container up in front of her and she didn't deny making the mistake she never corrected it by charging what she said but rather I had to pay the higher price. That's my fault but at least i can control that it won't happen again.
Beware of the Hong Kong Buffet, 3372 Cloverdale Road in Cypress Square as their prices are subject to change between the time you order and check out.
