Hot Pot Restaurant Fined $100,000 for “Dual-Price” Menu Targeting Tourists
A hot pot restaurant in Inner Mongolia was fined ¥100,000 (approximately $13,700 USD) for operating a “dual menu” system, charging tourists higher prices than locals for the same dishes. The controversy began when a blogger exposed the practice at Mengyuan Niumen Flame Traditional Hot Pot. The Hailar District Market Supervision Administration investigated and issued the fine for misleading pricing tactics. Authorities are committed to a “zero tolerance” approach to such violations. The incident highlights a trend of unfair pricing targeting tourists.
