they came to Austin and did 2 "rescues"

the first they turned into this silly arse, trying way too hard place called "Metal and Lace" which they call a "steampunk bar" which has drawn nothing but from most. It's the one place on Red River that I just laugh and walk past.

the second is this bar on east 6th called the Brixton that was already pretty popular and the owners just used the show to get some new decor. They kept like half of it and ditched the rest.

Have a friend that was on this show. She said it was completely scripted. I'm not surprised, but I've never seen it

Amen. There is a severe difference between the two. If you think popping open bud lights at some shite hole bar qualifies you to go work somewhere like, I don't know, Cure then go ahead and try.

The one about the BBQ place with the drunk owners is in AZ off I-17. I've driven past that place anytime I've gone to Flagstaff or Sedona and always noticed the sign for the "kick-arse BBQ"

I may have to stop there one time to check it out.

I hope they show the Canyon Inn one. I started watching that one the other day and fell asleep. That was the one with the former athlete as an owner that was freaking out over them changing the name of his bar. Owner seemed like a total tool.

Every show is "Use local ingredients and spend a shitload of money giving it a facelift."


Woooow, how do you work this kind of magic?

I also laughed when they did the Bourbon street bar and the chef came in and was appalled at the gumbo they were serving. Who the frick cares about the quality of gumbo on Bourbon?
