A Chinese restaurant chain has promised to refund thousands of customers after a customer was filmed urinating into a hotpot at one of its branches in Shanghai. The incident sparked widespread outrage on social media, with the company apologizing and pursuing legal action against the offender. Haidilao will offer compensation to customers involved in over 4,100 orders between February 24 and March 8. Two 17-year-olds have been detained by police for their role in the incident. The incident highlights ongoing food safety concerns in China’s catering industry, which has made significant improvements since a major scandal in 2008.
