What happend next? After the changes, reviews for Blackberry’s were a bit hit or miss. Some reviewers praised the restaurant, even calling it a “phoenix rising from the ashes”. While there were ups and downs, I would say that the Yelp reviews generally seemed to show some positive improvements. Sadly, it would not be enough to save the restaurant. Blackberry’s Restaurant closed its doors for good in March 2013, which was around 1.5 years after the Blackberry Restaurant Kitchen Nightmares episode aired on TV. the Blackberry’s staff said that the restaurant was unable to content with an economic downturn and struggled because of a lack of parking. As of 2022, the old Blackberry’s Plainfield, NJ location has been filled by a bakery called Un Nuevo Renacer Bakery. Reviews seem average but the restaurant has been successful so far where Blackberry’s failed. After Blackberry’s closed, she got a job at Aramark working as the Kitchen Manager/Lead. If you’re not familiar with Aramark, it’s a big company behind a lot of food places (e.g. college cafeterias and stuff). So it appears that Shelly Withers is still involved in the food industry, even if she doesn’t have her own restaurant. Mateen Booker was the sous chef at Blackberry’s who was actually competent. He has remained in the restaurant industry since Blackberry’s closed. Currently, he’s the executive chef at OTG management, but he’s also worked as a chef at The Standard Hotels and Sunset Beach. He’s been with OTG Management since 2016, so Mateen seems to be doing well there.

[@RobbieStacks90]

@@cosmicplaysboi2620 He planted it. How would he immediately notice a mouse outside of his line of vision? That's something he would have noticed on the way out. Kitchen Nightmares was a reality TV show. Without moments like these, people would lose interest. The histrionics, incompetent chefs, mice, and decaying food were all part of the entertainment aspect of the show. The show would have bored people to death if it were run under normal circumstances.

[@boxing388]

@@RobbieStacks90I’m sure editing along with the music cues embellish the drama, but I don’t think they would need a planted mouse. There is typically enough drama happening organically. Have you ever worked in a restaurant? Any given kitchen has enough drama and chaos to supply its own reality show. If anything, kitchen nightmares only scratches the surface. There is so much drugs, sex, and baby momma drama in just about every casual dining restaurant in the US.

I just love Mateen, i hope he got some job as a proper chef after this resto closed. Shelley is lucky to have Mary as her mother and have a bunch of level-headed workers on her resto, but her pride is her downfall. I hope she learned something from this. For people thinking that the mouse was planted, you know there are cameras right? Planting dead animals can be a liability and I highly doubt this show would like to get sued and put Chef Ramsay's name on the line for drama. Gordon's British-ness says it all, "fuck TV". Who's stupid enough to do that.
