I love this guy, and hope he does well. He basic position seems to be similar to Howard Roark, he makes it his way, and if you don't like it, get someone else to make it for you, but it isn't happening at his shop!

    You need to develop a gif of a glowing sarcasm tag that envelops and eats the the PITA diners. We could all then steal it and use it as necessary.

    I've been looking all over for a parody I once saw where a hippie wants to go back to "nature" and live at harmony with everyone. So he gets dumped in the woods, someone hands him a spear and he's like "What? I have to work for food! That's like capitalism dude! That's not fair!"

    I used to go out to eat with a couple and the wife was so picky, and not afraid speak up and she did in the most rude way. Notice I said used to go out to eat with. :)

    I want to see all of the posters in this on a stand up comedy stage. You all are hilarious! Keep it going.

    I would take an alternative approach. If these snotty hipsters want everything so "natural", hand them a live chicken, a pairing knife, and a bucket of boiling water. I call that MSG free, gluten free, organic, free-range, FUN!

    Sorry, but clearly the water from the spring at the buddhist temple in Busan, South Korea is far superior, and MUST be the one we mandate. ;)

    Well, I have a different take on the situation. I absolutely insist that all restaurants where I dine have Waiakea Hawaiian Volcanic Water. On several occasions I have been invited to dinners where it was not served. You can simply imagine my horror. I really think it should be illegal not to serve it, and restaurant owners like this guy should either be forced to serve it or not licensed to do business. I find it abhorrent that I cannot force my personal preferences on those with whom I do business.

    If someone has a condition which requires special foods [or the omission of special foods], eating is their responsibility. We used to go out with a couple, one of whom had allergies and celiac disease. She would study the menu, maybe ask questions, and ask them to serve her specific things. She always tipped well. She didn't make a big deal out of it. She dealt with it like a grownup, which is what the complainers in this situation should also do.
    Good for the restaurant owner for specifying exactly what drove him to the "mini-strike" - we don't call out people enough on behaving badly these days.

    Spoiled, demanding, rude adults who can't take no for answer. The business owner OWES them what they want. Good for him for posting signs. Someone should ship him a copy of Atlas Shrugged.
