Manchester hotspot Lucky Ramen and Sushi, located in Ancoats, exposed an influencer and told her that

A busy Asian restaurant exposed an influencer and told her to “fuck off” after she asked to pay for a meal with “exposure.”

Manchester hotspot Lucky Ramen and Sushi, located in Ancoats, took to Instagram on Saturday to reveal that a content creator, who they decided not to name, had requested a free meal in exchange for a post on their “story and page”.

The restaurant received a direct message from the influencer, whom they dubbed the “blue brand superstar,” asking them to do a “collaboration,” but they were not very impressed with the offer.

Stunned staff shared the post online, but the influencer became furious after seeing her private DM being shared and snapped back at the restaurant for trying to “expose” her.

In another message he wrote: ‘Personally, I think you are out of line. HOW DARE YOU try to expose us like that??? So you think people like us don’t deserve to eat FREE???

Manchester hotspot Lucky Ramen and Sushi, located in Ancoats, exposed an influencer and told her to “f*** off” after she asked to pay for a meal with “exposure”.

The social media star’s initial message read: “Hey, sorry, I know it’s short notice, but I’m in Manchester tomorrow looking for somewhere to have lunch with my partner. Would you be willing to collaborate with me for a post on my story and on my page?” ?’

Sharing the message on Lucky Ramen and Sushi’s Instagram story, the restaurant wrote: ‘REALLY?…? Oh what a surprise! Another exciting direct message from a blue brand superstar asking for a free feast in exchange for an Insta post.

‘Because, you know, exposure pays the bills! We’re delighted that you appreciate our food, but hey, we appreciate paying customers even more!’

After seeing her message shared on Instagram, the social media star doubled down.

‘In case you haven’t noticed, we are doing everything we can to help you and promote you for FREE!!!’ She answered. ‘We don’t expect much, just a free meal to compensate for the time, work, effort and positive energy we are giving them.

‘The fact that you want to expose us to influencers like that, we won’t come soon to support you. Your food looks good and we hear it’s a great busy environment so we try to be supportive. But your arrogance makes me sick.

‘Haha very funny, you got a couple of giggles but they were the ones laughing. We go where we want, we eat what we want and lastly, everything is free! WHO’S LAUGHING NOW???’

Lucky Ramen shared another scathing response to the woman, who they dubbed an “angry influencer,” and joked that her new message deserved a “standing ovation.”

Lucky Ramen shared another scathing response to the woman, who they dubbed an “angry influencer,” and joked that her new message deserved a “standing ovation.”

They responded with: ‘Dear Angry Influencer: Okay, okay… you got us! We’re really sorry for trying to figure out your behind-the-scenes tactics yesterday and, you know, us trying to make a living and shit.

‘But wait, the new message we just received deserves more than a standing ovation! This follow-up DM totally changes the rules of the game, and guess what? Now we’re rolling out the red carpet for all the free meals you want.

‘And that’s not all: our chefs are ready to ditch their Crocs and Birkenstocks and offer them as an added bonus for their tender love and work!

‘Even my father’s medal of honor from the Japanese war is at stake: he is feeling generous as an old man and is even thinking of bringing you his new eco-friendly hybrid wheelchair.

‘Just send us another DM, let us know when you pick up your well-deserved gifts, and don’t forget to leave a glowing 5-star review on both Google and TripAdvisor.
