“Please take the fries off my head, kid. The basket is extremely hot.”
Today is an excruciatingly slow news day, so this story is about “United Plates of America,” an ambitious reality show greenlit by NBC in which the winning contestant is awarded a restaurant chain.
A group of would-be restaurateurs will compete to impress a panel of wealthy investors from the cooking and business world. Challenges will test competitors’ savvy on such subjects as their restaurant’s concept, menu and marketability and their ability to manage staff…
The show’s winner will receive a restaurant chain that opens in four locations in various U.S. cities on the night of the show’s season finale. [THR]
My pitch: “Good food, good fun, and a whole bunch a crazy crap on the walls!” Do I win? What if my deep frier can flash-fry a buffalo in six seconds?

how bout a resteraunt that serves entrees made from cute animals? you know bbqed koalas, kitten kabobs, puppy pierogies.
There better be a raw jelly bean appetizer.
Please tell me at least one restaurant on that show will have an alligator in sunglasses. Whatever!
I go to Uncle Moe’s for his Hobo Chicken Chili. He start’s off with the best part — the neck — and then adds secret hobo spices.
/tres bien!
I expect that kind of language at Denny’s, but not here!
@kp: I’ll tell you where you can put your freakin’ sodie!
@Zack — I also recommend Professor P. J. Cornucopia’s Fantastic Foodmagorium & Great American Steakery.
Though the sodie at Uncle Moe’s makes my teef hurt.
Aww ya got the stink lines and everything…
Something something milksteak boiled over hard.
How do you serve your steakfish?
My restuarant would be apart of the green revolution. All food served at my place would be made from food found in the garbage cans of other restuarants. Once you boil it, it is almost as good as new.
6 seconds? But I want it NOW
My idea is for a topless version of Hooters, except we specialize in peanut butter sandwiches. I call it “Butters.” Can I have my franchise now?
As long as your place doesn’t smell like tinkle, I’m in. I’ll save the Texas Cheesecake Depository for another night.
Road signs indoors…well, NOW I’ve seen everything.
Come to Uncle Moe’s for family fun, it’s good, good, good, good, good good-good!
Moe shouldn’t have got rid of the dank. The dank!
Six seconds is a great deal faster than the 40 seconds offered at Uncle Moe’s. I would go to your place because I want my flash fried buffalo now.
