The blogosphere is buzzing about the arrest of chef Dan Kaufman of Busy Chef, on Henry Street in the North Brooklyn Heights. Kaufman was arrested yesterday, accused of double-swiping customers' credit cards to the tune of $25,000 and other crimes. Charges against Kaufman include Grand Larceny, Attempted Grand Larceny, Possession of a Forged Instrument and Criminal Impersonation.Whether Kaufman is found guilty or not (innocent until proven ...) he appears to have made a lot of enemies in his travels. Many commenters on the Shamelessrestaurant.com blog profess a hatred so intense it's almost sublime.
We can't print most of the comments. Okay, here's one we can print:
" I mean these are some pretty nasty things being said here , and maybe I'm just one of those gullible people who think people can change or make mistakes . But don't you think there just might be a time to let go ? how many possibly can read this site ?"
And another:
"Dan has caused so much anger and resentment in Boston that I think people post here because they know Dan will read it."
Those are practically the only printable remarks. Here are a few links:

ReplyDeleteSO MMMMEATY!!!
Seriously the most amazing, shocking, wonderfully stupid story I've sunk my teeth into in quite a while.
I happen to know him & have instinctually steered clear of him even though he's there every time I turn around...
Who knew?
Oh yeah, Boston.
I -cannot- believe my curse worked!
ReplyDeleteNow I'll just send up one last little dark prayer ...that the entire "COC" racket melts away like the North Pole.
