DINING: TV opportunity for newbies
January 30, 2009 - 5:23 pm
Here's a rather unusual proposition: If you're planning to open a new restaurant by September and “lack any real restaurant experience” — or basically have no idea what you're doing — you're invited to apply for a chance to appear in a new TV reality show.
The show, “David Adjey's Restaurant 101,” will have a restaurant consultant (David Adjey, coincidentally enough) “provide first-time restaurant owners with the tools to open and run a successful business.” So you know, sort of like Gordon Ramsey's “Kitchen Nightmares” without the abuse.
I think.
At any rate, they're looking for “compelling characters with good personal stories and high stakes.” If that sounds like you, e-mail restaurant101@redapple.com.
