This Williamsburg Hipster Reacting to Guy Fieri’s Fake New Restaurant Totally Gets It
Step off, “I’m-not-really-into-the-whole-f*cked-out-over-commercialized-celebrity-chefdom thing”-guy. Your pretentiousness is not welcome here.
A couple of days ago, comedy troupe Late Night Basement went around asking young, hip Brooklyn-ites how they would feel if Guy Fieri opened up a restaurant in their “completely corporation-free” culinary haven. The results, of course, were expectedly douchey.
All except for one, the young lady around two minutes who, while clearly hip and clearly Brooklyn-y, also has no qualms admitting that “nacho cheese-stuffed foie gras” doesn’t sound entirely bad.
“I’m kinda into that,” she says after taking the time to think about it instead of immediately writing the place off as the epitome of everything wrong with Corporate America.
But she doesn’t stop there.
“Take anything that Guy Fieri does,” she continues around 2:19, “open it at midnight and have it close at 8 o’clock in the morning and that’s a winner.”
The moral of the story? Even though the offending restaurant was fake, hipsters just need to pipe the f*ck down and appreciate gross, commercialized, over-the-top food for what it is — which is the perfect drunk-time noms.
“Tell me it’s open from like from 11 p.m. to 3 a.m.,” she asks her interviewer hopefully at one point.
Dahling, that’s exactly what we were thinking.
