From a well-known restaurant to an infamous eating joint, Mocambo earned itself a new tag within a day. If you are unaware of what’s happening here, let us tell you that Mocambo pulled a lot of attention by a cheap stunt.

On Saturday evening, a woman visited this restaurant but was denied entry because she was there with her driver, who apparently wasn’t good enough for the restaurant’s standards.

Dilashi Hemnani then took it to Facebook and wrote a big post sharing her experience and how she was humiliated in front of everyone. A lot of people began sharing her post and within no time it went viral.

This #Mocambo incident is a shame!since when have colonial ghosts taken over & replaced them with classist souls?! #Kolkata #notMYkolkata





Most of the young generation are wearing TornJeans these days and that doesn't make them beggars #Mocambo #ClothesDefineCharacter #Kolkata — M Gagan Sai (@GaganCool777) September 12, 2016







Regulars at the restaurant started rating it 1 on 5 over social platforms and began to tweet about it.

Amid all the ruckus and claims, nobody heard Mocambo’s side of the story and while Mocambo had the biggest opportunity to clean the dirt, this is what the manager had to say-

"We don't allow roadside people to enter our restaurant."

"We don't have a dress code. But, if someone is dirtily clothed, we won't allow them. He was a driver, he looked dirty", the manager told Huffington Post. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.

The fact that the restaurant is still coming out so strongly with their mindless opinions says a lot about the kind of culture they have and are happy to promote. Responses such as these are surfacing on social media and Indiatimes can't vouch for their authenticity.
