Seems only reasonable that if one takes sushi at a sushi buffet one should eat the sushi. We should bear in mind that it is the rice with sushi su that is the sushi, everything else is topping on the sushi.

The plaintiff’s actions are akin to going to an all you can eat cake buffet and eating only the icing.

“[W]e are not after money, but a change in A Ca-Shi’s thinking and policy.” I’d love to hear what thinking and policy change he would recommend.

“Take all you want, but eat all you take” is a common posted admonition in all-you-can-eat establishments.

Lionel Hutz: now Mrs Simpson, after they kicked you out, where did you and Mr. Simpson go?
Marge: we went fishing. (breaks down crying).
Lionel Hutz: ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I ask you, does this sound like the actions of a man who had ‘all he could eat’?

To be fair to the sushi shop, it is understood that there are limits on all-you-can-eat offers that are not placed on other offers, e.g. no doggie bags.

Many will also post signs or have a tacit understanding that the consumer cannot waste food.

If you leave a heaping pile of rice on your plate in an all you can eat place, I would ask you to leave as well.

Pizza Hut has an all-you-can-eat buffet, I was thinking of just having the toppings.

Maybe they should call them “All We Let You Eat” sushi joints.

I’ve had a problem myself with overbearing all you can eat sushi restaurant owners. After a few trips to the buffet they took the soy sauce from my table, trying to give me a hint. Maybe they should be more hospitable.
