Pennsylvania woman claims Golden Corral kicked her out for dressing 'too provocatively' [photo]

A Pennsylvania woman claims she was asked to leave a Golden Corral restaurant last week because she was dressed "too provocatively."

Sueretta Emke said she was dining with her family at a Golden Corral in Erie, Pa. when a manager said her crop top was too inappropriate and some customers had complained. Asked what was inappropriate about her outfit, Emke said the manager couldn’t answer.

Emke wrote on Facebook that the manager’s request probably had more to do with her not being thin, “so it’s not considered sexy.” She said she had seen “people in there wearing less and nothing is said to them.”

“How can you not have a dress code but then make one up for certain customers if another customer complains? That’s not ok. It is discrimination,” Emke said. “And if you are okay with that, where are you going to draw the line?”

Emke told Yahoo Lifestyle she reached out to the regional training manager, who “apologized profusely.” He reportedly told Emke he planned to implement sensitivity training and hire more female managers.

Her weight is none of your business. She is a new mother and that is probably the reason for her weight. Maybe she can deal with it when her baby is older, maybe she will find that she cannot. It is her decision when to go on a diet not yours, and no one has the right/duty to intrude into her life and instruct her how to live. But I do think the manager has a point, she should have dressed a little better.

what else could he do?

He is not cowardly. He apologized for the insensitvity of his manager.

She may not be pretty, but she has clothes on.

I think her choice in attire is kind of trashy to begin with. Cover up, will ya!!!

By the way, I have never been to Golden Corral and from what I hear, many go in there just to make gluttons out of themselves.

They should not have kicked her out considering that there is no posted dress code. That said, they surely should have screened her table and given her and her party a private space to avoid damaging the appetites of the other patrons.

No one wants to see your flab while eating.


She’s not exactly a great advertisement for the Corral. Maybe the manager was worried she was hurting the restaurant’s image as a health nut’s paradise.

You see people in AZ walking around like that, and eating in restaurants, all the time.

She has a right to complain.

Provocatively? That might provoke a bonobo monkey, but not much else.
