So on Kitchen Nightmares, there was a restaurant that was in the spotlight just recently. Here's the ep:


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6LY7TJ16pg

It's fairly obvious the owners are complete batshit crazy...but it doesn't end there. They got a facebook page and the owners are currently melting down hard due to people calling them out.

https://www.facebook.com/amysbakingco

Anyone in the Scottsdale area wanna go over there and scope the place?

Watching now...I'll be back with some thoughts. BTW I worked at an LA restaurant as a manager and we almost brought chef ramsey, (I was in charge of the nightclub portion), but the team thought it would put the restaurants image down under.

Thanks for sharing this jeebus...I rarely watch TV aside from sports or movies, so I havent seen this show in a while.

I dont even know what to say, obviously something is beyond wrong with these two people. BEYOND.....

Time to read their FB comments for me

Wow, that was a hilarious episode. I have a friend who worked at a restaurant called Angler's Choice in Marina Del Rey that was 10x worse than that place though.

http://www.yelp.com/biz/the-anglers-choice-marina-del-rey-2

It's kind of funny everyone complains about the waiters never coming back to check on them in the reviews for Angler's Choice above; the reason is because the owner would try to charge the waiters menu price for any meal sent back.

The tips are the only thing keeping them in business, besides the shorting of the paychecks for the people that quit.

Most of the places he tries to turn around are already past the point of no return.

It's the same thing with that show about the bar & grill expert who goes around trying to save bars. The only reason he has a decent record is because every bar he goes to he fixes by dumping a huge amount of capital into and completely rebuilding with the most modernized shit available.

yes, not surprising imo. most of the places they show are too far gone and the only reason the restaurants are full at the end of each ep is because of Ramsay and the celebrity factor. after that's gone, everyone goes back to not giving a shit :lol

tbh saving restaurants isn't what the show is about anymore; it's about the comedy that happens in the kitchen and with the owners. and this time, gold has been delivered.

LnGrrrR
05-14-2013, 01:44 PM
Here are the most common problems with restaurants in that show:

No recordkeeping/tracking of what food they have. Half the time they're ordering more food while unused food sits rotting in the back of a fridge somewhere.

Too many dishes, with most of them done poorly. He usually cuts down on the menu to consolidate food ordering and put less of a strain on the kitchens.

Batshit insane rude as fuck owners. (Can't do much about this one.)

I vaguely remember that now with the "selling out" line. Yeah, Big Lou's can have some really long lines, and frankly, there isn't a piece of food in the world I would wait an hour in line for. Maybe sometime try hitting them on a weekday after the lunch rush but before the dinner one.

The old Jew owner man, said he was a holocaust survivor, so I give him a point for that. I ordered the Amy sandwich, and it came with a side of cat hair and meowmix. Then I proceeded to order the eggplant parmesan, It was not eggplant, it was just fancy feast patties, with a meowmix crumb coating, then it was deep fried in the tallow of virgin kittens.

Screaming, Expletives, and, Eventually, Police: All in the First Night of Kitchen Nightmares Taping at Amy's Baking Company (http://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/bella/2012/12/amys_baking_company_kitchen_nightmares_gordon_rams ay_scottsdale_arizona_taping.php)

Yelpers went nuts over the weekend -- and guess who was the topic? Amy Bouzaglo of Amy's Baking Company in Scottsdale, who apparently cooked up a storm on Saturday.
In fact, I reached out to one diner who was at Saturday night's taping of Kitchen Nightmares at Amy's. He got a very real dose of reality television -- more than he bargained for, actually.

- Name-Calling Restaurant Owner Back in Spotlight: Amy's Baking Company in Scottsdale Targeted for Upcoming Kitchen Nightmares with Gordon Ramsay

Although he had heard about owner Amy Bouzaglo's reputation, the diner, who wishes to remain anonymous because of a confidentiality agreement he signed for the show's producers, tells me he was more a fan of the FOX reality show -- in which British celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay spends a week with a failing restaurant to try and bring it back to life -- and wanted to be a part of it. What he didn't count on was the chaos that happened that evening.

"I couldn't believe it was real," he says.

http://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/bella/assets_c/2012/12/SamyandAmyABC-thumb-550x368.jpg

The scene started almost immediately.
"It was very tense," the diner tells me, "you could hear Amy [Bouzaglo] yelling in the kitchen and Samy [Bouzaglo's husband] was running all over the dining room. Other tables were complaining and people were leaving because they were waiting so long for their food. My partner and I had reservations for 6:45. By 9:30, we still hadn't received our pizza."

Thinking the drama might be part of the show, the diner talked to one of the show's producers, who confirmed that what was happening was real.

Still without pizza, the diner went up to the cash register to talk to Samy, who was arguing with another customer. When Samy saw the diner, he told him his pizza was coming. When the diner answered that Samy had told the diner that an hour ago, Samy responded by saying, "Why don't you go fuck yourself."

And, according to the diner, it wasn't long before Amy came out to see what was happening.

http://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/bella/assets_c/2012/12/AmysBakingYelpPage1-thumb-550x234.jpg

"She was yelling and screaming 'get the fuck out' and saying if we weren't going to pay for our drinks, she was going to call the cops. She called me a 'tough guy' and said, 'You better correct your acting skills if you're trying to get on TV.' The producer said he would pay for our bill and that we should leave."
The diner adds, "The producers told me they had never seen anything like this."

When the diner and his partner walked out, he says the Scottsdale police were already on the scene and tells me they were responding to a 911 hangup call he presumes was made by Amy. He goes on to say he heard Amy tell the police she had been "set up."

To add to the evening's disaster, the diner says he never did get to see Gordon Ramsay.

When I called Samy to ask for his side of the story, he told me couldn't talk to me because "Ramsay was there."

A call to one of the producers of the show has not yet been returned.

The Scottsdale Police Department confirms for Chow Bella they came out to Amy's Baking Company on Saturday evening following a 911 hangup call. They concluded everything was fine and left without making a report.

I spoke with my former boss who owned a relatively successful restaurant before it went under in Los Angeles. I mentioned earlier that Kitchen Nightmares called and asked to come in before they went under after a huge lawsuit they had with a business partner led to problems.

I asked him if he had seen this episode, he told me no. I told him it was good he didn't go on the show because it could literally ruin your life. He told me that the whole reason why he was interested is the show producers called and offer $60-70k to do the show because they make a certain percentage off endorsements. They said they'd have a contract over in days, but he decided he didn't want his personal life out like that.

I know this guy, he's loaded up the ass, so $70k wasn't worth it to him. I just found that interesting that they offer so much money to be on the show. I can see why people are willing to go on now, it's not that they really think it will work they just wanna get paid. Thought that was a cool story bro tbh

Customers will be able to decide who is correct: a chef with 13 Michelin stars & restaurants all over the globe, or two psychos who can't even cook a fucking pizza.


Amy and Samy, ignore the haters. Ignore the Reddits. Ignore the Yelpers. I thought you guys looked great on TV. I thought your food looked wonderful. I am blind, but that doesn't matter. You guys did sound like assholes, though


Katy Cipriano, the girl who was fired/quit on the episode of Kitchen Nightmares did an AMA on Reddit (Ask Me Anything) in which she stated she only made $8/hr. I'm sorry, but that's not a great paycheck. Remember, folks, Amy, or rather Amanda Patricia Bossingham, was convicted of obtaining a line of credit using a false SSN. Which means, she is a convicted thief and liar. She has scammed a bank, and someone else who owned that SSN out of money, and was found guilty in a court of law, and had to pay back over $35K in restitution. Amy and Samy desperately want us, the public, to believe she doesn't steal money from employees, but we have the word of an employee, Katy, stating otherwise. Not to mention, they admitted on their show to taking the tips! Why should we believe the word of a convicted felon/liar/thief over that of an innocent teenage girl who was just trying to do her job? Nice try, Amy. No amount of PR is going to fix things. Additionally, you don't close down for half a week and then have a "Grand Re-opening". The world is not going to forgive you in less than a week.

I've been following these idiots since the episode aired. It just keeps getting better and better. :tu




The co-owner of Amy’s Baking Company — a Scottsdale restaurant that has been the center of controversy ever since appearing on the culinary reality TV show “Kitchen Nightmares” 11 days ago — is facing deportation.

Salomon “Samy” Bouzaglo, who owns Amy’s Baking Company along with his wife, Amy, is involved in a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement case to revoke his residency status, his lawyer said Tuesday. Scottsdale immigration lawyer David Asser said the case against his client started two years ago and was the subject of a removal hearing Monday.

Asser, speaking just hours before the Bouzaglos reopened their embattled restaurant, said he could not comment on the case. He also said Samy’s immigration case has nothing to do with the television show. In fact, Asser said, he has not even watched the episode that has earned his client celebrity status.

“I didn’t know they were going to go on (the show),” he said.

Amy’s closed in the wake of the “Kitchen Nightmares” episode, which aired on Fox on May 10 and showed the owners yelling and pushing customers, taking servers’ tips and firing one waitress on the spot, calling her a “poisonous, little viper.” People across the country took to Yelp, Facebook, Reddit and other websites to express their disgust with the Bouzaglos‘ actions after the show.

The Bouzaglos hope to turn around their business with a weeklong grand reopening that began uneventfully Tuesday. The restaurateurs said that they had more than 1,500 reservations for Amy’s this week and announced plans to donate 10 percent of the grand-opening proceeds to the Megan Meier Foundation, which raises awareness of cyberbullying.

On Tuesday, Amy’s opened to a thin crowd and began serving those holding reservations at 5 p.m., using security guards to prevent gawkers, media and others without reservations from entering. The restaurant had a sign saying its patio was closed for security reasons. The reopening appeared to be running without incident for the first wave of diners. Some onlookers showed up hoping to snag a reservation, but most were turned away. The nearby Pita Jungle restaurant appeared to be drawing more business than Amy’s.

Laurie Ferrere Vermillion, a Scottsdale blogger, was among the handful of people turned away in the restaurant’s first hour because she had no reservation. Vermillion had hoped to dine at the restaurant Tuesday despite discouraging reviews from her friends.

“My friends who have been (to Amy’s) said, ‘Don’t waste your money,’” said Vermillion, who has seen every episode of “Kitchen Nightmares” and was shocked by the show featuring the Scottsdale restaurant.

Leon Lucero, 19, said he was curious about Amy’s and was hoping to get a reservation at the restaurant Tuesday night.

“Maybe this is a new start for them, a new beginning,” said Lucero, a music major at Glendale Community College who said he expects food at the restaurant to have improved.

Annie Dutoit, 42, who was at a nearby coffee shop, said she had dined at Amy’s with her family five or six times in the past 18 months and generally had good experiences.

She said she was surprised at the way Amy and Samy were portrayed on “Kitchen Nightmares.”

“I don’t know if the editing was done to show horrible things,” Dutoit said.

A native of Switzerland, she said she has dined all over the world and considered Amy’s a decent restaurant. Amy did special orders for her children, making crepes for them, Dutoit said.

She said she was surprised to hear on the show that the servers did not get their tips and would not want to support a restaurant that did that.

“I would go back, but I want to know what the truth is” about Amy’s, said Dutoit, adding that she is not sure what to believe about what was shown on a reality TV show.

Tuesday’s reopening capped a tumultuous week for the owners of Amy’s.

The couple was supposed to hold a press conference Tuesday at the restaurant to give their side of the story about what happened on the “Kitchen Nightmares,” suggesting the broadcast was not an accurate depiction of their restaurant. The press conference was abruptly canceled on Monday.

A Scottsdale public-relations firm headed by Jason Rose explained in a news release that a law firm representing the producers of “Kitchen Nightmares” warned the Bouzaglos against making disparaging remarks about the show or its star, celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay. Rose's firm announced on Monday that it no longer would be representing the Bouzaglos.

On Tuesday, Samy and Amy talked about their past records and indicated Samy had served time in prison before immigrating to the United States 13 years ago. Reached by phone as they drove to their restaurant Tuesday morning, Amy and Samy each tried to talk over the other -- interrupting, yelling and even cursing one another as the conversation continued.

“We both made mistakes in the past. We have done our time,” Amy said. “We can’t comment. We know God is with us.”

Samy said he could not talk about any past records but added he has not had any problems since immigrating to the U.S.

“The FBI knows all about me.... The IRS knows,” he said.

Samy said issues surrounding his immigration status were “a sensitive subject” that he did not want to talk about Tuesday.

But he indicated that he wanted people to know that he had nothing to hide.

“I want people to know about me,” he said. “But not today, not tomorrow. I have nothing to hide.”

Asser, the lawyer, said Samy is an Israeli citizen and was born in Morocco.

Amy, 40, and Samy, 63, live in Gold Canyon. Before coming to Arizona, they lived in Las Vegas. Amy also lived in Colorado and California.

Records show Amy has served time in federal prison and has a history of liens and judgments.

In 2003, Amy Bouzaglo pleaded guilty to misuse of a Social Security number when she applied for a $15,000 bank loan. At the time, her name was Amanda Bossingham. She spent about a year in prison beginning in 2008.

Records show that prior to her conviction, Amy faced four judgments in Colorado in 1998 and 1999 totaling about $14,000. She was also sued in Arizona in 2000 for $3,229. The judgments appear to have arisen from unpaid debts that were turned over to collection agencies.

She married Samy in 2004. Records show he is from Los Angeles, where he lived upon arriving in the United States. Records indicate he has no criminal convictions or civil judgments in the United States.

“I am perfectly clean,” he said.

rofl. I was wondering about that grand reopening. Of course they cancelled te press conference. Of course the nearby Pita Jungle would get more business. Of course Meow and Samy hand picked the reservations so they don't have people in there who would start trouble. I really do hope they do a press conference of some sorts later just so I can see them meltdown one. last. time.

Wow. Having owned a restaurant, it always amuses me to see those owners who say if people don't like the food, they don't want their business. What a bunch of delusional assholes.

And it continues. :lol


Much to our astonishment, Amy's Baking Company has yet to completely fade from the spotlight. Perhaps it's because of the public's appetite for owners Amy and Samy Bouzaglo's particular brand of crazy, but it might just be that the pair keeps pissing off the wrong people. Like journalists.

Case in point, Phoenix Business Journal reporter Hayley Ringle recently suffered through an attempted meal at Amy's Baking Company that involved fruit flies floating in her party's cocktails and ended in her group getting the boot from the Scottsdale, Ariz. eatery. Her article that followed was not kind, but justified.

But first, some context. When one of Ringle's dining companions -- Phoenix Business Journal's digital editor Adam Kress -- ordered a vodka martini on the rocks with a twist of lemon, it arrived garnished with a fruit fly. When brought to Samy's attention, the co-owner at first apologized and brought Kress a second martini, which also had a fly floating inside it. After some squabbling, Samy brought over a third drink -- with three flies in it.

Ringle and her companions complained, which is when Samy reacted in a manner similar to his appearance on "Kitchen Nightmares":

He immediately became defensive. He said there are no bugs in the drinks, and he would pay for all of our drinks and then said we needed to leave.

I asked him if there were no bugs, did he think we planted them in the drinks? He again told us to leave.
So our group of four, which had all ordered alcohol except for me, and had each ordered a dish close to $15, walked out at Samy's stern request.

But one victor may have emerged from this whole debacle: Pita Jungle, the restaurant next door. Ringle and her party decided to eat there after getting kicked out of Amy's and found the place "super busy and very friendly."

The Huffington Post reached out to Pita Jungle to see if our suspicions were correct in that the eatery's foot traffic or sales had increased, but a representative declined to comment -- which we respect. At least someone is taking the high road.

LOL, that shit was hilarious to watch for one episode, but how could anyone watch that again? Unless Samy starts shanking people what more can they do that they didn't in the Kitchen Nightmares episode?
