A group of 8 tourists from China for 1 spent the evening in the famous Hummus restaurant in Israel 16,5 thousand shekels ($ 4 390).

This news spread around the Israeli media and reached the country's foreign minister, who personally decided to check why such a large bill was issued to tourists, writes The Washington Post.

The owner of the restaurant, Jaudat Ibrahim, explained why the tourists were given such a bill: they ordered several bottles of expensive alcohol - Beluga vodka (a bottle costs $400 dollars), a whole lamb (30 kg of meat), and also asked for a separate room, which meant closing part famous institution on a busy Friday night.

The bill looked like this:

• 4 000 NIS per private room ($ 1064);
• 650 NIS for snacks and salads ($ 173);
• 5 900 shekels for alcohol ($ 1569);
• 3 150 shekels for main dishes ($ 838);
• 1 350 shekels for desserts ($ 359);
• 1 shekels - service fee ($500);
• The total amount is 16,5 thousand shekels ($4).

“They knew the prices before the food was brought to them. If they thought they were cheated, why would they add a 10% tip to the bill?” Jaudat Ibrahim said.

Now the Israeli Foreign Minister and the Chinese Embassy in the country are trying to contact these tourists to find out what happened in the restaurant and what they think about the bill.
