https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-53792871A restaurant in central China has apologised for encouraging diners to weigh themselves and then order food accordingly.
The policy was introduced after a national campaign against food waste was launched.
The beef restaurant in the city of Changsha placed two large scales at its entrance this week.
It then asked diners to enter their measurements into an app that would then suggest menu items accordingly.
Signs reading "be thrifty and diligent, promote empty plates" and "operation empty plate" were pinned up.
