Mr Saffron, who lives in Los Angeles, has taken action against the executors of his fathers will in an attempt to claim part of the trust. Its been several months, by now I am most definitely not angry at either the show nor the Saffron family. If that in fact is really Alan, I have a few words for him. Gordon is shown to his seat, where he has a chat with Alan and Gen. Gen says that the restaurant opened 16 months ago, which is not long at all in the restaurant world. S02E03 Momma Cherris Soul Food Shack Brighton, England Shame on Ramsay for not knowing he had been had. Truth is I love England, my grandmother was English and I am very proud of that. record I dont beieve Alan actually stole money from Daniel since I feel most of the S03E05 Lido di Manhattan Beach Manhattan Beach, CA The more drama the more potential. LOL Im reading this 3 years after the original airing of this episode (on the Thursday all day marathons of Kitchen Nightmares on BBC America. S05E02 Leones Montclair, NJ Wouldve loved to have popped past when I travel there later this year. It was a two-part episode that spanned Kitchen Nightmares Season 5 Episode 6 and Episode 7. S04E06 Down City Providence, RI **Closed** Was it in hopes that a show producer watching TV would say wow Id love to make a show about this family, likeKeeping up With the Saffrons. And Gordon Ramsays show is the tool by which this could happen perhaps? A residual remains and Alan is sueing for that as he had a stroke and feels he was unfairly treated in the original will. After the show, I was thinking that this must be the worst family in the world. However the fact that this is entertainment is not at issue here. . He knew eventually. Date Filed: 11/12/2009 Overall you have to wonder were the omissions on purpose? Just found this artivcle form 2010 where it says, 17 years ago, entertainment entrepreneur, Alan Saffron was the first to introduce Power rangers to the retail market at puzzle Zoo in Santa Monica, now with his son Daniel; he brings a whole new brand of hamburgers to Southern California this Halloween. Using piles and piles of rough footage they create an interesting story in the editing room. S05E09 El Greco Austin, TX **Closed** My thing is that in the show, they made it seem like Daniel was forcefully dragged into the business by Alan- and yet a few months before the show, Daniel was online posting about him and his father planed about opening the place, and how they have a passion for burgers. My guess is that they dont have a pot to piss in.. but they keep the saga up to defraud people. WOW!! S05E15 Zocalo Philadelphia, PA, UK S03E03 Clubway 41 Blackpool, England **closed** I have to say I feel very sorry for your son Daniel, it was heartbreaking to see how he was treated by someone who should care for him. The furniture and ornaments in his small apartment looked like inherited heirlooms. I WATCHED THESE CHANNELS FROM THE VERY FIRST MOMENT THEY AIRED ON TV, AND THEY USED TO HAVE PRETTY GOOD COOKING SHOWS ON THEN, ONES THAT HAD SOME REALLY GOOD CHEFS AND COOKS AND RECIPES ON THEM, BUT NOT NOW. Legitimate or not, they are his kids, his flesh and blood and have 100% rights to the inheritance they got. This episode has just aired over here in England. If it really is Alan posting on here, Alan I hope your son hits you on the head with a mallet, and then his jittery cracked out girlfriend hits your wife with a mallet, and then her heart beats like a hummingbirds and explodes. Their heads frequently butt, and Daniel has a great deal of resentment towards Daniel. The Executors of the estate took over $1,000,000 in commission without court approval, similar to stealing. Daniel is absolutely at the end of his rope, and he doesnt have anyone to lean on. So this paper is so worthless that he kept it all this time for 16 whole months. Pity they closed down. S04E05 Davide Boston, MA At times Gordons reactions did seem to me quite genuine, and I could imagine some of the cast being genuinely crooked simply by their persistence that problem wasnt in their court but always someone elses. I wouldnt trust this guy or anything that comes out of his mouth, as far as I could through him. Obviously that would still mean that 1 Million Aussie would equal roughly 700K USD, so there remains a discrepancy, but not as great as you have indicated. THIS LOOKS LIKE A REALLY GOOD, WELL WRITTEN ARTICLE, BUT ITS FAR TOO MUCH READING AND TIME INVOLVED, AND I DONT HAVE TIME TO DO SO, BECAUSE I JUST SPENT A ENTIRE HOUR WRITING THIS COMMENT. I tried to work once for someone I had know for years, only to find out they were a whole different person in a work environment. Maybe the father/son team actually planned this together but told Gordon otherwise. EVEN THOUGH THE RESTAURANT IS NOW CLOSED, I DID WRITE A COMMENT ON THEIR YELP PAGE AND POSTED IT A COUPLE OF HOURS AGO. Alan was managing Daniels money, so he actually took part of the money. Really old thread but he seems to be doing fine. Then his paycheck was only $1,000 dollars which makes me wonder how long DID he actually work there to only get 1,000. Third Street in Los Angeles is a young, hip neighborhood known for trendy shops and neighborhoods. Well if my blog is not important enough why should I even bother with someones comment at all? Think ramsey is awesome nutcase!, i would personally be scared to go and this when there kitchens full of knives. You were able to get people off FACEBOOK for a minute :D. Fascinating information here. ACTUALLY, ALL THESE TRAVEL-BASED SHOWS THEY DO WHERE THEY VISIT THESE RESTAURANTS, KIND OF LIKE KITCHEN NIGHTMARES, ARE ACTUALLY REALLY NOTHING BUT GLORIFIED INFO-COMMERCIALS YOURE WATCHING. I do not know Daniels life, nor Alans, but if I was to gather anything out of this, Daniel got screwed by Alan, who in turn screwed himself over royally by his past actions. This episode did make an impression on a lot of people, were all still talking about it because it was just so dramatic. I did no calculations. Frankly, the most irritating person was the girlfriend. Burger Kitchen's saga, unfortunately, doesn't end on a high note. Lastly, if Alan got 500k in the inheritance, that is what Abe felt he deserved. Does he live with his wife and Daniel? Consequently it came as no real surprise to me when [executor Victor] Bogan told me in late 2010 that a further property had been found and realised, contributing at least another $1 million to the estate. One article mentioned that he cried when he found out his father left him so little money. The environment is extremely chaotic and is a train wreck and a half according to some of the servers. He had asked for medium-rare, which means a little pink. Welcome to the biggest Gordon Ramsay sub on Reddit! One glance at the family and you can tell they are part of the tribe known historically for their crime and general treachery and dishonesty. I liked PuzzleZoo.. kind of a kinky kind of place I always thought let me tell you the start of the Gordon Ramsey show.. it is all correct. Alan also unashamedly told Gordon that he opened the restaurant by basically taking his sons inheritance money, which added up to $250,000. Hey Parker- To ask us if we are aware of it is redundant. The beer selection was also another topic that was praised. Burger Kitchen is run by an incompetent owner who used money from his son's trust fund to keep it going, but between that, a frustrated chef, bad and undercooked food, over five thousand in Read allBurger Kitchen is run by an incompetent owner who used money from his son's trust fund to keep it going, but between that, a frustrated chef, bad and undercooked food, over five thousand in loses each month, and the annoying wife/co-owner, things are about to go nuclearBurger Kitchen is run by an incompetent owner who used money from his son's trust fund to keep it going, but between that, a frustrated chef, bad and undercooked food, over five thousand in loses each month, and the annoying wife/co-owner, things are about to go nuclear David (chef): Suck on this burger, Gen. And you too, Alan. I also want to note that while the (grand) children were given $1,000,000.. each.. it was Australian dollars, which was about .4 or .6 to a dollar, about $500,000 so the facts have to be put into perspective. First everyone has recieved thier inheritance. Too bad I live very far away from this place.

Very good blog and loads of interesting info here. The 1st amendment is still protected here. I have an idea, why dont YOU do the research and find out exactly how much the total inheritance was. Thanks so much Gen! How about NEXT TIME think before you write and dont bother to look at the disclaimer and think twice before you write to people with rudeness and contempt, who do you think you are, the editor in chief of News of the World, whatever man! I think its also pretty naive to think that at any point in time was London any different, I point you to a book by Gamini Salgado called The Elizabethan Underworld. Of course he is going to say something like that when trying to launch a new business, that whether he wanted to or not, he is a part of now. But did Daniel know? The eight grand children recieved $1,000,000 each, the mistress Terri recieved about $4,000,000 in cash and property, the illigitimate daughter, Melissa recieved over $4,000,000 in cash and property. The kitchen all agrees that Burger Kitchen is mismanaged by a dysfunctional family. ITS BULLSHIT, ABSOLUTE BULLSHIT!! Cause Im pretty sure ol Danny would have out up a legal fight over his stolen 250k especially in LA. Gordon dives in, but like the previous burger, it is pink and raw in the middle. A n Oregon man who got stuck in a Burger King bathroom is suing the fast food restaurant for allegedly backing out of its "free food for life . S04E04 Grasshopper Also Carlstadt, NJ Here Alan, who looks sick due to a stroke says that he should get more money because he had a stroke and could not work. I could see how Alan had had a strokeI couldnt place what was off about him (apart from the obviously odd personality).

In this article, Alan Saffron is described as a Los Angeles agent. Alan says I dont think somebody born of my fathers mistress and her children should be beneficiaries, well considering that Alan also accuses Abe of breaking into his home in the past . Upon meeting the owners you find that already the father, Australian immigrant Alan Saffron says that Yelp killed the business. Africa! A TOTAL WASTE OF THEIR TIME AND EXPERTISE, AS WELL AS THE VIEWERS. However, the restaurant is already deeply in debt 16 months after its opening. Then Alan, the talent agent goes public about trying to get a reality TV show and/or movie.
