Lucky Ramen and Sushi, a pan-Asian restaurant in Manchester, England, publicly slammed an unnamed influencer’s request for a free meal in exchange for social media exposure.
Exposing the influencer: The business owners shared a screenshot of the influencer’s initial request and their angered response to their rejection calling out the entitlement in a now-viral Instagram post, saying, “Oh what a surprise!
