I heard this Dean Cole dude has beef with Flip Flop. I’ve seen a video where he’s dissing him last year. So he opens a so call high end restaurant in Puerto Plata and his menu from what I’m hearing is almost similar to Flip Flop. But the hot dog?? I don’t know?? Are they 100% pure beef hot dogs at least?? Does he has an extended menu??

I think the beef is the other way around. There was a link shown on this post, did you watch it? Flip Flop feels that Dean Cole stole his idea. Dean Cole says he had the Capitol to make it work and Flip Flop didn't. It obviously came down to who had the money to get it off and who didn't.

Yeah, I saw that video.  Flip Flop came across as very pouty-- talking about if it weren't for him turning Cole on to the DR, he wouldn't have come up with the idea, as if Cole couldn't figure things out himself.

It wasn't a good look.

Flip said dat nuggah will be out of business in a year lol

I think the 24/13 Sports Bar is the second major investment I know of in the DR by a Puerto Rican.

Instead being a snow crab, Flip Flop should have seized the opportunity first.

Guess he doesn't have the money or credit he says he does.

I heard him say that, but where? That section of the malecon is full, you would have to go way farther down toward the end, and pick up that empty high end looking place on the beach side (I forget the name)

He won't make it with the overhead. I promise. I doubt Atlanta lights makes it either.

Pop is not sosua.

If he is serious about opening on the malecon, he should just wait for that space to come up for rent again. Based on the first few weeks of operations, I don’t see any indicators of longevity.

Someone at least has had a conversation with him about the menu and profit margins. The hot dogs are gone, but how many of you fellas are going out for $250RD rum and Coke’s and $650RD for a Big Mac (the description sounds oh.... exactly like one. Exactly) and fries?

In DR if I am paying almost $11.50US for a burger, twoallbeefpattiesspecialsaucelettucecheesepicklesonionsonasesameseedbun does not cut it.

Maybe now it’s the #1 most expensive burger stand in POP! That’s something to say.

@Viva question. What makes you think Flip Flop would make it in the same space if the place folds?

Can I ask the obvious question no one else has? What happens if HW defies all the odds and the place starts turning a healthy profit. Yall really think that a gringo is gonna have a popping spot on the malecon without any Dominicans wanting a cut?

How long before he has multiple hands in his pockets, police or otherwise? The nightclub/bar business can be tricky in first world countries, let alone the DR....

I don’t have a lot of confidence in that location for a copy of “Flip Flop Bar” either. Maybe he has a new concept in mind.

When this spot was first announced I said it was not a location I would consider.
