Storyline

I've seen most of these and I love them! Obviously whoever thinks this show is staged has never run a restaurant. These kinds of things happen on a daily basis. When you find a restaurant worker who takes pride in their work and shows professionalism give that person a bonus!! Everybody thinks being a waiter is a piece of cake, but it takes a lot of coordination and energy, respect for the rest of the staff and, of course, the customers. Again, I love this show! Willy's approach is rough but effective, and he's ready to praise when praise is warranted. If owners don't have training, and most don't it's hard for them to manage properly. I'm amazed by the number of people who go into the restaurant business without having a business plan or a clue about how they should be run. Willy has learned the hard way and knows how to help. This is a fun show to watch and I highly recommend it.
