My dad found a mouse jis chinese food...can we sue?

Question

My family and I went out to eat chinese food at the Dynasty buffet.My dad went to get desert and got some cherry cobler. He bit into something and looked to see what it was and It looked like the bones of a small mouse and it smelled rancide and rotten. It wasnt chicken! The health dept came to our house to pick up the bones that we kept.

Can we sue them over this? A few people told me that you cant and that all you can do is get them in trouble with the health Dept for not being clean.

Answer 1

How disgusting. Try calling a few lawyers in the yellow pages. You can sue for anything really, it depends whether the judge throws the case out or not. good luck,

Answer 2

No you can not sue but you can report them to the health board. Maybe they can get you some thing. Please don't be spiteful, Many innocent people are involved here also.

Answer 3

you should call the department of health

Answer 4

no of course not, fried mouse is a chinese delicatesse.

Answer 5

You should report it for sure. That is no right.

Unfortunately, Chinese restaurants are not to be trusted in many places. My friend said that she went to China last year with a group of 100 students from the US and other countries to make a concert show among the Chinese. She said that after eating the food over there she and other members of the group got sick.

I had a similar experience when I was in Hawaii. I went  to the Chinese restaurant in the town with a group of Asians and some white people. After that day, some of our friends and schoolmates got sick including those group leaders.

I advice you to go ahead and report it, and be more careful when you go to any restaurant.

Please make sure that their kitchens are clean and have a high hygiene. Ask the owner of the restaurant to show you the kitchen or go to the restaurant that the kitchen is open to all. If the owner refuse to do such demand, don't eat there.

Make sure the ground and the walls are clean. If it is dirty, there is a high probability to find weird animals like rats, mouse and cockroach. And I don't think you want to eat such thing right?

Make sure the forks, chopsticks (if it is a metal chopsticks), the plates and cups are well washed.

And so on... if you have more question just ask.

I hope it will be useful for you!!
