12. Balanced Diet

Wang Peng earned his living by running a barbecue restaurant, which served delicious bacon, fried chicken breast and mutton roasted with pepper and garlic. But his food and discount attracted fewer and fewer customers. Finally, he was in debt. Yong Hui's slimming restaurant served fresh peas, carrots, eggplants, and raw cucumbers with vinegar. As the hostess, she said fibres benefited customers' digestion the most. In order not to let Yong Hui get away with telling lies, Wang Peng spied on Yong Hui despite her glare.

But he was surprised. Curiosity drove Wang Peng to check Yong Hui's menu. He found that her dishes had too few calories, while his food contained too much fat. "Your menu has shortcomings. Your customers will become weak too easily, while the fat in your food will make them put on weight," said a nutritionist. "You ought to combine the two menus and provide a balanced diet."

Before long, Wang Peng won his customers back.
