ARIANA MADIX AND KATIE MALONEY’S SOMETHING ABOUT HER SANDWICH SHOP OPENS WITH A BANG
Excitement is in the air as Ariana Madix and Katie Maloney’s highly anticipated Something About Her sandwich shop finally opens its doors in West Hollywood, Calif. After months of setbacks and permit issues, the dynamic duo is ready to serve up a mouthwatering menu that is sure to please even the pickiest eaters.
From gourmet peanut butter and jellies to delectable grilled cheeses, Something About Her has something for everyone. But that’s not all – the menu also features sandwiches named after Hollywood stars such as Reese Witherspoon and Drew Barrymore, paying homage to the iconic films of Nancy Meyers.
However, their former boss Lisa Vanderpump is taking a cautious approach. The renowned restaurateur reveals that she won’t be visiting the shop right away. “I don’t invite anybody to my restaurants for the first two weeks,” she explains exclusively. “I want a minute to sort out all the problems before I say we’re open. They’re open, but let’s give them a minute.”
Despite the challenges they faced during the restaurant’s development, Madix and Maloney have managed to overcome the odds. During the “Vanderpump Rules” Season 11 reunion, it was revealed that Maloney felt abandoned as Madix pursued her Broadway dreams in New York City. However, Vanderpump believes that in business, tough decisions must be made. “You have to put business first above your relationship if you want it to succeed,” she advises.
With tensions rising, Vanderpump hopes that the friendship between Madix and Maloney will withstand the pressures of running a business together. “You have to draw a line with that. Any of the petty squabbles have to be set aside,” she says. Reflecting on the longevity of friendships within the Bravo cast, Vanderpump remains optimistic about the future.
As Something About Her opens its doors to the public, it’s clear that this sandwich shop is more than just a place to grab a quick bite. It’s a testament to the resilience and determination of Madix and Maloney, who have proven that with hard work and a little bit of patience, dreams can become a reality. So head on over to Something About Her and experience the magic for yourself. You won’t be disappointed.
Reality TV star Lisa Vanderpump, known for her successful restaurants including SUR in Los Angeles, has always prioritized separating business and personal relationships. Despite having partners in SUR, Vanderpump emphasizes the importance of putting differences aside and focusing on the success of the restaurant. She is excited to mentor aspiring chefs on the show “Food Stars” alongside her friend and fellow Brit, Gordon Ramsay. Vanderpump believes in pushing contestants to be the best they can be. However, she is not interested in partnering with Ramsay in a business venture, as their approaches to food and aesthetics differ. While they have mutual respect, Vanderpump jokes that spending two months together during filming was enough. Season 2 of “Gordon Ramsay’s Food Stars” premieres on Wednesday at 9 p.m. ET on Fox.
