Customers were left disappointed after a new burger restaurant was forced to shut its doors on opening day. The busy launch was brought to an abrupt halt when YUM Burger suffered a power outage.
Hundreds of hungry diners queued during the day to take advantage of the offer of 50 percent off all burgers for the opening weekend at the company's flagship restaurant in Sneinton. Despite the glitch the owners of the family-run business in Sneinton Dale vowed to be back and have promised to honour the half-price offer that was cut short.
The restaurant opened at noon on Saturday, June 18, with the power for the heavy duty cooking equipment going off about 10pm. Although the earlier queues snaking around the building had calmed down there were still people waiting to order.
