Her FetLife page must be incredible.

Also, judging from the hundreds of employees these two have went through AND the obvious delight on the current servers' faces, these girls were sticking around just to see these two get theirs on nationwide TV.

Unicorns? Come on lady, they went extinct years ago.

Had me in the first minute. this is amazing.

Ok, what the fuck, this has to be staged, as in, everything. These people are a couple of psychopats.

Oh god the yelp reviews.

guys will put up with a lot of shit to get some

including the million dollar investment

So obviously these people are crazy, and their bad reviews are earned and legitimate, but I just want to take a second here to point out that there actually are hordes of fake bad reviews on Yelp that Yelp uses to extort small businesses: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2013/04/16/1202103/-round-two-yelp-c om-extorting-small-businesses

Meow. Meow. Meow. God wants me to cook. Meow. Meow. Meow.

i used to work at a soul food restaurant. i was the only not-black person who worked there; i worked there as a dishwasher, janitor and prep cook.

the place had good food, but it was slightly too expensive for the average patron in the year 2008; the place closed down within 6 months of its opening. near the end, the owner (a morbidly obese black man who prepared the meats) and his wife (a slightly less obese woman of color who prepared the sides) had a loud argument in front of a bunch of patrons on a lucky busy weekend. i saw a lot of weird looks from customers, but i tell ya, nothing scares off patrons like loud arguing; more than half of the people waiting in line for their food just up and left in 2 minutes.

a month later i got laid off when the place went under, and two months after that i heard of their divorce :(

TL;DR: anger is pretty unappetizing

At 7:50, the owner's wife sounds exactly like Chris-Chan.

So, apparently, this place has been known for this shit for some time now, with the owners being infamous as local crackpots or something; how the business stays afloat I don't know, but from what I've read here and there, my guess is that most of this show was partially staged, in so much as apparently there's no way that many people would have been present in the business without being paid to go or asked to go or something. Their facebook meltdown (that giygus posted above) is apparently only the latest in a series of weird online meltdowns this woman has done on places like Yelp and Urban Spoon.

Wow. Woooooow.

At first I thought this was just Reddit being the big bunch of roaming assholes they tend to be but I stand corrected. These people are actors and cannot be real.

I'll add another article to the link party: http://shine.yahoo.com/work-money/kitchen-nightmare-comes-true-for -arizona-restaurant-owners-182329445.html

Holy Crap these people are Crazy with a capital Cray-Cray.

"It's become evident that you can't take criticism"

Understatement of the day there, Chef.

I'm going out on a limb and assuming the restaurant has lost money since it's opened.

So what happens when his (apparently bottomless) money runs out? Does he go back to being a "gangster?" Does she stay with him if he can't "make her dreams come true" once the losses (their MUST BE losses) pile up?

My ex lives a few blocks from this place and says that this lovely couple has quite the local reputation for being uunpleasant nutcases.

Speaking as someone who has seen several episodes of this show, I can safely say that you have to be crazy beyond all hope for the Kitchen Nightmares crew to ditch you.

Also, holy shit the Facebook drama and the Yelp reviews. Wow. Its like a bottomless pit of trainwreck business surrealism.

So basically all people who wind up on Kitchen Nightmares wind up in a few specific slots:

1) Millionaire builds a restaurant for their crazy/untalented significant other. Doesn't care how much money they lose as long as the sex is kinky enough.

2) Delusional family that thinks a restaurant is the same as a second living room.

3) Frustrated artiste that figures cooking is the same as painting/music/dancing/underwater basket weaver.

She is clearly cuckoo for cocoa puffs.

Food beyond compare, food beyond belief.
Mix it in a mincer and pretend it's beef.

From the Yahoo comments:

"When 2 personality disorders marry"

Pretty much sums it up.

WOW. THE TWITTER COMMENTS.

In some fever dream, this would all turn out to be the most elaborate troll of society in the history of history. The Scooby-Doo moment of masks coming off revealing Siegfried and Roy being the moment just before I wake up.

This is a money-laundering operation, right?

Holy shit these people. Oh my god this restaurant.

Okay, so I hadn't seen this yet, but I had heard so much about it. Right before hitting play, I asked myself how someone could be as screwed-up as the Internet was saying.

I hit play, and the video's first words are "Scottdale, Arizona."

I almost felt like I didn't have to watch the rest of the video.

I have to admit, seeing how people react to this show has really been eye opening. When I watched it I was like, oh, my family decided to open a restaurant while in disguise.

(My solution has been very similar to Ramsey's)
