I've just finished watching the episode. I am still trying to comprehend what I just witnessed. How is this restaurant even still open?
I just watched it too! It's jaw-dropping.
It's so epic. It's like "Marat/Sade" starring Alice Ripley performed in a dinner theater.
OMG Reginald...I laughed so hard that I just wet myself a little reading that!!!

As we were watching it on Friday night, my roommate and I were sayin how this was bound to become a classic and that it MUST be turned into an opera.
I loved when the server described Amy as being a Care Bear one moment and then Cruella De Ville the next.
I love how they're Christians too, but every other word on Facebook are dirty words. She's also very judgmental.
Honey, she's a whole helluvalot more than judgemental! That's just the tip of that iceberg!
She is probably crazy but so much of that show seemed staged. I am sure many of the restaraunt patrons were extras. If Samy and Amy didn't show up to open the restaraunt, how did the camerman get inside? They let his camp out overnight? Yes it is creative editing and I guess if 1/4 of the footage is honest it is still pretty f'd up.
Not sure if I am buying the facebook/ twitter rants either.
They're actually open about the patrons being invited guests. They're not actors, per se, but they're not random walk-ins either.
I dunno, I can't make the call. It seems so over the top. But it's apparently a real restaurant, and I can't think of a motive for looking this barking mad.
As for the internet stuff, they're now saying they were hacked. Which is patently untrue, but the best move I could think of.
I think I read somewhere that ALL of the restaurants Chef Ramsey helped on Kitchen Nightmares wound up folding.
These two are a hoot. Narcissistic personality disorder. Wild.
Gotta hook her up with the insane Maryland sorority sister for a show.
She is now the permanent image I'll have of one particular poster on BWW.
Yes, we get a glimpse of our own Sue's future. Needless to say, it was a train wreck to be sure and one I enjoyed being a voyeur on. Yes, it is a real restaraunt, probably in a severe tailspin, why NOT try to create a Soup Nazi type of image? I am sure the place will be swamped with rubberneckers over the next few months, perhaps helping pay off some of the debts.
Borstal, that's not true. My roommate and I ALWAYS check to see if the restaurants are still open whenever an episode airs and even when we watch reruns (we're weird) and 9/10 times they're still open.
It is a real restaurant and it's not difficult to believe when they have posted insane delusional stuff for over a year now.
When life hands you lemons, stir up a glass of Country Time powder and water and blame everyone else. Just like Jesus.
A user on Reddit wanted to have a Meet Up at the restaurant. No word on if it happened.
I grew up on Country Time, but I haven't had it in years.
Where on earth do they find these people, I wonder? The last time I watched Kitchen Nightmares it was a two-parter that featured a guy who opened his restaurant by digging into his son's savings. The son worked for the restaurant, had this girlfriend who looked like Jiminy Cricket, and clearly had no self-esteem.
Where do they find these people? Then I remember that I worked in the restaurant industry for a few years and the answer comes quickly.
ok after spending some time on their FB I really wish I had watched that episode.
I just checked Hulu but that episode is only on Hulu Plus
I have a feeling we'll see a Fringe show next year called "Crazy Amy".
