Los Angeles, CA - The parent company
of Roscoe's House of Chicken and Waffles has filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy, claiming a debt of $7 million, according to NBC Los Angeles.
East Coast Foods Inc. says it owes $3 million to a former Roscoe's
employee Daniel Beasley who sued the popular restaurant for racial
discrimination last year. The future of the popular Los Angeles chain is
uncertain in the wake of the bankruptcy filing.
TMZ broke the news to Snoop Dogg
and Warren G yesterday (March 29), when a reporter caught up with them
outside Los Angeles' Lure Nightclub. Both were incredulous that the
restaurant might go under.
"I ain't even know," Warren G says. "It'll get worked out."
Snoop Dogg comes up after and jokes that his friend is taking the
interview too seriously. He then appears shocked to learn of the danger
to Roscoe's and declares that he's going to save the company.
"Bankruptcy, Roscoe's went, no they didn't?" the Doggfather says. "I
guess Ima have to buy it, man and make it Snoop Dogg's Chicken and
Waffles."
