A TikTok influencer called @itskarlabb shared her negative experience at Kis Cafe in San Francisco after being denied a free meal due to her follower count of 15,000. Chef Luke Sung reportedly claimed her followers were not the types of patrons the restaurant sought. After this confrontation, which she described as tense and belittling, she gained over 300,000 followers. The backlash resulted in the restaurant temporarily closing and Sung's dismissive behavior being publicly criticized in a subsequent statement from Kis Cafe.
Karla alleged that the chef informed her that her 15,000 followers were not enough to warrant a free meal in exchange for promotion, claiming it was bad and a mistake.
Following her viral post, the chef’s actions led to considerable backlash, and the restaurant temporarily closed. Kis Cafe released a statement addressing Sung's behavior.
