There’s a Mexican restaurant which I always wanted to try. Walked in and ordered a carne asada plate- the fucking thing was almost 30 bucks. It took like 20 minutes and was the consistency of reconstituted shoe leather and tasted like a jarred fart.
There is never a soul eating in there and yet it remains open.
SURPRISE MOTHERFUCKER
Oof, if you're going to run a money laundering business at least either provide a good product or a cheap price.
They don't want to do that because the restaurant could potentially become popular and then they'd have to actually function as a restaurant.
Then you have more revenue so it's easier to launder large cash payments through it.
Then you have to run a restaurant which are notoriously low-margin anyway. Just make fake a bunch of fake sales so the money comes out clean, needing to effectively manage a restaurant is a lot of overhead for someone who may have no interest in running a legitimate business.
