I've seen hotels that have a cold and hot buffet breakfast offering, with the hot items on a different table. If you don't take anything from the hot table, you pay the cheaper rate, although often you're asked about this (requested to declare your choice at the beginning) or told how the system works when being shown to your table.
Yea thats pretty much it. Told about the cheaper rate at checkin. There was no one present at breakfast until we were done eating, and I was in a hurry and not going to wait for the person to show up.

The deal was they had a bread and fruit table, then the other table with the more expensive stuff.
