Perth: A woman named Reanna Ho recently had a jaw-dropping experience at a Chinese restaurant. She went out for dinner with seven friends at Canton Lane and ended up with a bill of $944.30. Ouch!

The main culprit? A live lobster that cost a whopping $615. Reanna knew the price could change based on weight, but when the dish arrived, there was no clear info on the cost.

She later found out the lobster weighed 4.5 pounds and was priced at $120 per pound. That’s way more than the usual $60-$70 range. Reanna felt something was off, especially since they didn’t mention the price per kilogram or the extra charges for noodles.

Locals agreed, saying the restaurant should have been upfront about the costs. The restaurant admitted they didn’t communicate well but defended their pricing, saying the lobster’s head is removed for cooking. They also mentioned that rising market prices were to blame.

Despite running the restaurant for eight years, they insisted there was no deception involved. It’s a wild story that’s got everyone talking!
