In a recent incident, a food vlogger was refused service by a restaurant owner who expressed concerns about negative reviews. The owner claimed that the vlogger might criticise the food after leaving the restaurant, potentially harming his business. A video of this confrontation has surfaced on the internet, showing the owner returning the vlogger’s money and asking him to leave the eatery.

The video, posted on X, captures a man, from behind the camera, visiting a restaurant and ordering a plate of spring rolls. He also pays instantly, and the shop owner asks him to wait. In a few moments, the owner calls him and returns his money. The vlogger, clearly confused by this unexpected turn of events, asks why.
