Buffet apologizes for booting dieters


Salt Lake City _ Chuck-A-Rama says it's still not an all-you-can-eat 
establishment, but the restaurant chain is serving up an apology to a 
low-carb couple cut off from eating beef after making one too many trips to 
the buffet.

Chuck-A-Rama officials made the public apology Thursday to Isabelle Leota, 
29, and her husband, Sui Amaama, 26, who had dined at a Chuck-A-Rama in 
suburban Taylorsville April 20.

The eatery's general manager told Amaama he was cut off from the roast beef 
whe
n he went up for his 12th slice. When the couple refused to leave until they 
got their money back, the manager called police and had them escorted out.

Leota said they were on the low-carb Atkins Diet and ate at that location at 
least twice a week because of its convenience.
