This Restaurant Offers Fancy French Cuisine Dishes For $11, But There Is A Catch
Every foodie has a dream of finding a perfect restaurant with amazing food and even better prices. French cuisine lovers should look no further, because there’s a restaurant in Mukilteo, Washington which offers amazing high-class dishes for a bargain. In this place called Grouchy Chef, you can get a delicious gourmet dinner for the price of $11-30. At any other restaurant, you might end up paying around $60 or more for quality food like that. But there’s a catch – you must obey the rules or the chef will get grouchy.
Grouchy Chef is run by a single person, chef Mr. Masumoto. He has a very unique and precise vision of what his restaurant should be. Mr. Masumoto presents every customer with a set of rules which must be adhered to, otherwise, hungry clients may be harshly escorted out of the restaurant. However, the rules aren’t so crazy. Just don’t blow your nose or fix your makeup at the table, come properly dressed, take no photos, especially of the chef (except the food) and you’ll be fine!
Even though some people get irritated by the binder of instructions, they can’t deny that the food is amazing. People are loving the reasonable pricing too. This place is wonderful for low-income families, who can’t afford French cuisine anywhere else. Moreover, Mr. Masumoto doesn’t allow people to leave tips, instead, he sells “Grouchy Chef” logo T-shirts for $10 to raise money for cancer research in honor of his sister who passed away from this disease.
This place is definitely worth a visit. Check out the amazing meals below!

I don't see any problem with the chef's rules. They are basic rules of etiquette when dining anywhere - even at home. Sadly these time honoured rules have fallen away and not everyone is aware of them any longer. The chef is correct in asking that these rules be obeyed as it is a question of good manners - which sadly not many people have these days.

well i would argue the attire ruling is not basic etiquette. for instance. Jeans are no longer the clothes of the dirty work man. they can actually be very expensive fine a fine quality jean of which people take deeper care and concern over than they would a button up shirt reserved for a sunday mass. some of this is for sure just good manners and respect. But there are parts that are just outdated stigma from previous eras gone by.

What the f**k is wrong with ladies crossing their legs. That is b******t. I respect his take on some of these rules of etiquette, but I don't think he knows where some of them come from.

That rule does seem a bit absurd to me. Even in a shorter dress, putting one knee over the other will not "show what's up your dress"! Though If he's talking about sitting cross-legged with your knees out or putting one ankle over the other knee I could see that being out of place if you're going for a classy atmosphere.
