Does anyone see where she was actually profiled? Sounds like she was told no when she tried to get some free food and got pissed.

Or maybe he’s seen this same story 1,000 times.

You can’t add seasoning to food once it’s fried?


Providing the fried chickens or shrimps haven’t been sitting for too long once out of the earl that is actually the best time to add seasoning.

I 'm guessing the one in the middle was the one that said she liked her food

talk is it’s emboldening and making them feel even more entitled to the point they’re complaining to the media over their fried food platters.

Complaining about subpar food is nothing new.

In all sincerity, the owner probably hears complaints all the time. I know a white couple who returned their food at Sal and Judys once and Mr Sal returned the food to them and had the waiter say that Mr Sal tasted the food and he said that it’s perfect.It happens to all races occasionally.

You must’ve missed the point where they’re going on social media and making this a racial issue and not just a food issue, invoking muh BLM and the educated black nurse heroes on the front lines. Or you’re just being willfully obtuse

Honestly, this is a pretty bad look for the owner. Is her post embellished (probably/most definitely?)...who knows, but the video looks bad.

I would like to hear what the wait staff had to say. I am sure they were communicating their interactions to him. If he acted on what they were telling him, that changes things imho.

Unfortunately, two of the girls had fried items which seasoning can not be added to once it’s fried. The waiter then came out to ask how the food was. We told him the fried food was not seasoned well, and the fries were burnt. On top of that, it was cold...who wants cold fried food from a restaurant?

He said for the two fried platters, he would ask his manager what they could do to accommodate us. We thanked him for his consideration. He then returned and said, “The owner said that he is not accommodating anything. If y’all want something else, ya’ll NEED to pay for this food first, then we’ll gladly make y’all something else”.

As a former restaurant worker, I can tell you that the amount of times your average restaurant worker hears this from a certain group followed by "we don't want to pay for this" is countless.
