Default Honest Johns deal with Guy Fieri fell though?

Heard that the deal is dead. Anybody else hear that? Hope it's not true. Been looking forward to a grand opening soon.

Maybe even see the Camaro.

A friend said she read it in the newspaper. I doubted it as I would have read about it here or on the other site.

Guy Fieri is not leasing it. It is a licensing agreement. His money comes from the restaurant using his name & making his food.

Since you have a chef icon, I respect your post on the matter.
