A restaurant was fined 2,000 yuan ($260) after it was caught giving a short weight to a customer in Wuhan, Hubei, last Thursday.

A local resident surnamed Wang got only one chicken leg in a dish he ordered from Tiansheng Restaurant, which is known for its delicious chicken recipe. Wang had paid 58 yuan ($7) for the specialty dish.

Wang called the local industry and commerce department when the restaurant refused to admit it had given him short weight. The restaurant claimed that the chicken was "disabled".

Law enforcement personnel later visited in the restaurant and fined the restaurant. They also ordered the restaurant to give Wang a refund.
