EDITION: U.S.
Charita Jones
Nightmare for a Kitchen Nightmares kitchen

Well, it was bound to happen eventually. It looks like a restaurant featured on the UK version of Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares has failed. However, not in the way that you think.
Your first thought would be that, after chef Gordon Ramsay, star of FOX's US version of Kitchen Nightmares as well as Hell's Kitchen, helped revamp Momma Cherri's diner three years ago, the owner, Charita Jones, just decided not to heed the chef's advice and failed on her own. Not quite. After moving into a bigger location and expanding her staff, at Ramsay's advice, Jones' restaurant did quite well. In fact, it led to a business award and a book deal for the 52-year-old mother of two.
