So the regulars couldn't suck up the "inconvenience" of a film crew for the day, that is there to feature the place, that the fallout is "Better business/more cash for the mom and pop"? Sounds like they aren't seeing the big picture. And business is so good he wants to open another place to host the while they wait? I wish I had had those problems. It's great to get people in the door, that's NEVER a problem.
Oh, you can be at a bar and not get drunk, btw. What "getting drunk" has to do with it, I don't get.
Are you saying he's not seen as a TRUE man because he is interested in cooking or because he is full of energy and hyper?Oh be still my heart, he is my next husband!
Seriously, I really enjoy him, he has great energy, knowledgeable, and funny. Love DDD, and I like the other couple of shows he has been on.
I can see why people who have no interest in cooking might think he is a tool or a douche.
He has so much energy and hyper, they might think, especially with it being involved with cooking, that no TRUE man, can honestly be that way.
A place in my home town was featured once- it has really good food, but way too greasy for every day! I like to go there once a year as a treat.
He left the 90's kicking and screaming. Seriously, the dude is in his 40's and dresses like he's still in high school. Grow up.
That can be a curse as well as a blessing. I remember the first episode of $40 a Day, Rachael Ray went to a little surfer/biker hangout at LA/Ventura County Line called Neptunes Net. I used to love to eat there. Steamed goodies in back, deep fried goodies up front. Place your order, they call your number to go pick it up, then you go find a seat.
After Rachael Ray ate there, you couldn't get near the place. They expanded the parking lot twice, put a huge picnic area above the parking lot for the overflow crowd, installed three times as many port-a-potties (the place never had indoor plumbing!) and still you have to arrive at off hours and send someone ahead to claim a table while you place your orders.
He's visited half a dozen diners, drive-ins and dives in our area; I haven't noticed problems at the ones near me....
