The episode will likely center around owner Denise Whiting's decision to trademark the term "hon," a word deeply ingrained in the Baltimore vernacular. After a media frenzy and nearly a year of protests from Baltimoreans, Whiting announced her intention to relinquish the trademark with Chef Ramsay by her side at a press conference on November 7.
The reality show's website offers the following teaser for the show:
"On the Next Episode of KITCHEN NIGHTMARES... Chef Ramsay heads to Baltimore, MD, and immediately has his hands full when he visits Cafe Hon, a Southern Comfort eatery in need not only of a restaurant renovation but also a public image makeover. The owner of Cafe Hon has come under fire from the city of Baltimore for trademarking the word "Hon" - a term of endearment for Baltimore culture. Find out if the restaurant revamp and renewed public image will be enough to win back the city of Baltimore and revive its tradition of southern comfort cooking."
