The owners will not report this to the police if the diners return to make payment.
The owners of a seafood restaurant at 72 Horne Road are looking for a family that left without paying for their dinner on Nov. 15.
A Mothership reader, surnamed Tan, shared that the family of four, which included two seniors, had dinner at her parents-in-law’s eatery, Lai Huat Seafood Restaurant.
They ordered several dishes that added up to S$119.80, according to the bill seen by Mothership.
From CCTV footage shared by Tan, the family can be seen getting up from their table, which was yet to be fully cleared, and walking directly to their car.
The owners only realised that the family had not paid after the staff wanted to clear the table.
Tan and her parents-in-law wondered if the family had forgotten to pay the bill before they left.
The owners do not recognise family and thus did not know how to contact them.
They are hoping that the diners will come forward willingly.
No police report has been made, and the owners will not lodge one if the customers are willing to come forward and pay the amount owed, Tan said.
