THE DOLCE GROUP: It Takes Le Deux to Tango

We hope you’re hungry because Melissa is serving up a whole meal this episode! She introduces us to a Big Brother duo (Mike Boogie Malin and Will Kirby) who take their strategic partnership out of the house and into a collection of Los Angeles restaurants…restaurants you surely remember from the early 00’s when stars like Linsday Lohan, Audrina Partridge and Britney Spears showed up to see and be seen. But the restaurant life wasn't all paparazzi and publicity. From Belly to Ketchup, Le Deux and The Lemon Basket, The Dolce Group’s restaurants faced multiple lawsuits with increasingly higher stakes, and Mike and Will’s conflict only escalated when The Amazing Race came calling. Despite their sweet name, The Dolce Group’s legacy will forever be soured by Mike’s incessant appetite for more money and his inability to take no for an answer.
