An influencer creator with around 15k followers said she went to a café for what she believed was a promo meal and the chef, Luke Sung, told her she wasn’t famous enough for free food. She says he played her videos out loud in front of people, insulted her content, questioned her follower count and left her in tears.
Her video blew up and the café publicly announced that the chef was no longer part of the team then apologised for the incident. The whole thing shows how tense the influencer and restaurant world can get when expectations are not clear and when someone lets ego get in the way of basic professionalism
The store invite the influencer to the store but they didn't tell the chef that's why the chef didn't give the influencer a free food and the store fired the chef that's what I know (sorry for bad English)
The most important thing was left out in this version of the story was that the food influencer was invited by the management to try their food and act as a promotion.
But if the chef gave her free food then he would still get fired for giving free food.
These things should be arranged and made clear before the session, if she invited herself and asked for free food then I would have just asked her to pay the bill. If it was arranged for you to provide a meal for some social media content then it should have been honoured. No one knows but everyone has already chosen a side based on a summary in information
So if you're famous you have the pass not to pay what you want to eat in any restaurant? Ahaha
Top chef will be his own boss very soon
